Gayle Van Horn at Teak Publishing in North Carolina, informs us that the Summer Edition of the twice annual publication International Shortwave Broadcast Guide is now available. This regular shortwave program guide lists the programming of all known shortwave stations in an hourly format according to frequency.
The
news release from Teak Publishing states that more than 300 languages and
dialects can be a heard on the air shortwave and this programming presents
local and international news and information, as well as cultural motifs and music. This remarkable totality of shortwave
programming presents insight and information from all parts of the world that
is just not available via any other electronic medium.
This new Summer edition of the
International Shortwave Guide is the sixth since its inception, and it contains
several items of new information, in addition to the multiple pages of program
listings. New in this edition is a lead
story on clandestine broadcasting, and also a special feature on Who’s Who in the shortwave spectrum.
Also new in this edition is the
addition of frequency and station coverage for the radio stations that are
broadcasting in the longwave band, as well as international programming that is
heard from powerful radio stations that are broadcasting on mediumwave. All chronohertz stations, those stations that
give you the time pips in different parts of the world, are also listed in this
new volume.
In an era when radio broadcasting
stations in some parts of the world are reducing, or eliminating altogether,
their shortwave programming, we would commend Gayle Van Horn for her emphasis
in making information on shortwave programming available to a worldwide
audience. You can obtain her new 2016
Summer edition of the International Shortwave Guide in any part of the
World from Amazon, at: https://www.amazon.com/International-Shortwave-Broadcast-Guide-Semi-Annual-ebook/dp/B01FV3FL72?ie=UTF8&*Version*=1&*entries*=0
