A Standing Offer to Shortwave Broadcasters From Monitoring Times


Monitoring Times is a monthly magazine about radio. You, as a broadcaster, ARE radio. In a sense, advertising your station and getting people to listen to it is what you are all about. Our English Language Shortwave Guide section in each month's Monitoring Times is like a phone directory, showing people how to find you. To be sure the information we provide about your station will be accurate, send us your updated frequency list and schedule on a regular basis.

To be sure your information is correct and to keep current with what listeners are hearing and saying, you should also receive Monitoring Times. As long as your station's English language broadcasts are listed in the Shortwave Guide section, you are eligible for a free subscription to the electronic edition of the magazine, called MT Express. Just let us know the name of your station, the contact person and the e-mail address to which we should send notification that the next issue of MT Express is available for download. Send this to us at: editor@monitoringtimes.com.

To test out how it works, you can download a sample issue of MT in pdf format right now at www.monitoringtimes.com/MT/html/free_issue.html . You may choose to download the low or high resolution magazine (large or smaller file size).

All we ask is that you place Monitoring Times on your media list to receive schedules, updated and programming and industry news. You may send any information to Rachel Baughn, MT Editor (editor@monitoringtimes.com ) for distribution, or you may send schedules directly to Gayle Van Horn, Frequency Manager (gaylevanhorn@monitoringtimes.com ).
Station program producers who find items in MT that might be of use in their programs are welcome to quote from these items as long as they give credit to Monitoring Times.
