Future of Passport in Limbo

From PWBR headquarters
Passport to World Band Radio® in Limbo
As with any good recipe, a range of ingredients has to come together if a reference book is to succeed. Solid content is, of course, essential. But in recent months other considerations have had an increased bearing on the future of Passport to World Band Radio®. So it is that the 26th Edition of Passport to World Band Radio® is being held in limbo.
Despite this, for now we are continuing to maintain the WorldScan® database and uphold all proprietary material. Among other things, this should help allow for an orderly return
to production, under IBS' aegis or otherwise, should conditions allow.
For Passport® readers and our small team, alike, this is a seminal moment. After all, Passport to World Band Radio® goes back a quarter century and has had something like a
million readers worldwide. But the future has its own rhythm that confounds prognostication.
There may yet be more chapters to this story. Stay tuned.
Best regards,
