WRMI on CBS News Weekend.
« on: May 23, 2022, 1717 UTC »
Huh... The last time that I'd hear about shortwave news on mainstream TV media news would be when a president would do his weekly radio address on VOA. So, this is rare to see.  https://swling.com/blog/2022/05/cbs-features-wrmis-ukraine-war-news-over-shortwave/#respond

I was asked, yet another weird question, of how I would like to be buried, when I finally bite the big one. The answer was actually pretty easy. Face-down, like a certain historical figure in the late 1980's, (I will not mention who, but some of you will get it, and that's enough.) Why??? It would be a burial that will satisfy everyone: (1) My enemies will say that it will show me where to go. (2) On the same point, I can have my enemies kiss my butt. (3) It will temporarily give someone a place to park a bicycle. See??? A WIN / WIN for everyone.

The first picture they show behind the news announcer is of small segment of the front console of a Kenwood R-2000. A production assistant probably googled "shortwave radio" and picked an arbitrary picture!

Got to do something when the higher up's are expecting something you know nothing about.

Did they mention anything about the penguins roosting on the antennas?
