I've never posted here before, mainly because a SW-77 hooked up to a magnetic
loop with frequency converter located in the middle of Berlin does not quite
make me a HCDXer...
Anyways, I got to this hobby in 1994 and have been buying the WRTH ever since
then, plus a couple of other annual publications if my bank account allows me
to :-)
Just browsed through all the messages in this thread and have decided not to
buy the '99 edition as well, instead I'll finally give PWBR a try, since it's
come recommended.
The equipment I'm using may not stand any comparison with what other
HCDX-subscribers operate, but it already means a fortune to me and has heard
quite some countries during the past years...
Being on a rather low budget I don't see any sense in purchasing a 29 Euro
(here in Germany) book with hardly anything new. Sender & Frequenzen, aimed at
listeners in central europe, costs 22 Euros but includes 3 updates in 12
months. PWBR sells for hardly 17 and so far no one has complained about
outdated information.

I simply had to throw this in before I return to read-only mode :-) , MM
