A weekly 30 minute review of news and opinion, recorded from a
shortwave radio. With times and freqs for listening at home. 2 files-
broadcast and slow-modem streaming. Free to rebroadcast. China,
Netherlands, Cuba, and Russia.
Dear Radio Friend,
The latest Shortwave Report (February 22) is up at the website
http://www.outfarpress.com/outfarpress/shortwave.shtml in both broadcast
quality (13.3MB) and quickdownload or streaming form (4.9MB) (28:59)
This week's show features stories from China Radio International, Radio
Netherlands, Radio Havana Cuba, and the Voice of Russia.
>From CHINA- China is beginning work on a series of new nuclear power
plants expected to come online in 2012. 2 new suicide bombing attacks
have rocked Afghanistan, and Norway announced that its troops will be
stationed there for 7 more years. China has expressed grave concern over
Kosovo's unilateral declaration of independence from Serbia.
>From NETHERLANDS- The European Parliament was heavily criticized by
the Serbian Minister of Foreign Affairs, who condemned the Kosovo
independence in no uncertain terms. 122 nations are meeting in New
Zealand to try and negotiate a ban on the use of cluster bombs. While G
Bush was touring in West Africa, the notion of creating a US Command
Center there was rejected by every nation but Liberia- the command center
will stay in Germany.
>From CUBA- A Viewpoint on the calm reaction of the Cuban citizens to Fidel
Castro's announcement that he will neither run for nor accept the role of
President- he said he will accept the role of a simple soldier in the ongoing
battle of ideas.
>From RUSSIA- Russia was very concerned about US plans to shoot down
an out of control satellite, which was reportedly accomplished last night-
Moscow felt that the US wanted to destroy military equipment on the satellite
and use a missile as a test of the Star Wars project. Russia is opposed to
the Kosovo declaration of independence because of the precedence it will
establish- several countries in Europe and Asia have separatist movements
that would like to accomplish the same kind of self-determination.
There is an article about the Shortwave Report by Cassandra Roos on line
at-http://www.campusprogress.org/soundvision/780/big-stories-shortwaves
I was interviewed for an informative weekly radio show Mediageek, available
at http://radio.mediageek.net
All that plus times and frequencies for listening at home. It's free to
rebroadcast, please notify me if you're airing it and haven't notified me in the
last month, please mention the website if you only air a portion. If you just
want to listen and have a slow connection, try the streaming version- lower
sound quality but good enough and way easier if you don't have a high-
speed internet connection. If streaming is a problem because of your slow
connection, download the smaller file- it takes 20 minutes or less, and will
play swell in any mp3 player application (RealPlayer, Winamp, Quicktime,
iTunes, etc) you have on your computer.
This program will be aired on Friday afternoon at 4:30pm (PST) on KZYX/Z
Philo CA, you might be able to stream via
There are several other streams that work better- <
http://www.freakradio.org >Freak Radio Santa Cruz now streams this
program on Friday at 9:00am and Monday at 5:30pm(PST)
The Shortwave Report may be downloaded as a podcast from < http://www.radio4all.net/podcast.php/.xml?series=outFarpress%20presents > or iTunes (search for "shortwave" in podcasts)
Check out the amazing streams at < http://www.radicalradio.org >
And Radio For Peace International at < http://www.rfpi.org >
I hope you'll listen and air this if you're connected with a radio station. I am
still wondering how to get financially compensated for the 25 hours I put into
this program weekly- any ideas are appreciated. Any stations rebroadcasting
this (or listeners) are welcome to donate for production costs. You can do so
through the website. Many thanks to those that have donated! No Guilt!
