Yes, besides the fact that my dad didn't want to worry about maintaining a roof mast antenna for FM fringe station reception and a long line SW antenna anymore he complained that a lot of the overseas shortwave frequencies/stations he liked had gone, replaced by religious or left/right fringe ideologue broadcasts.
I got him exposed to some of what is out there re internet radio on his computer and he seemed interested and amazed re the variety and availability of some of what he used to listen to. He is fluent in 3 or 4 languages and passable/can follow broadcasts in 3 or 4 more and he knows a few (ancient) languages that no one broadcasts in (there aren't any Sanskrit broadcasts are there?). I'm really happy that this is opening his world back up a bit. -- redrotors ------------------------------------------------------------------------ redrotors's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=47813 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=88495 _______________________________________________ Radio mailing list [email protected] http://lists.slimdevices.com/mailman/listinfo/radio
