State broadcasters : QSLs part of domenstrating state power ...

There is no reason why a state broadcaster like VOA or BBC World Service
[high end, 12000 kw transmission power] or Radio Australia, RFI or RNZI (100
kw) should not provide QSLs.

Verifing reception is part of a state broadcaster's responsibility -- it is
part of domenstrating that the state is still properly functioning.

I would not expect a covert broadcaster like RFE/RL to provide QSLs at
all...

Similarly, religous broadcasters are not obliged to provide QSLs -- Vatican
Radio aside.
Most religous broadcasters provide QSLs more often then state broadcasters
do, becuase very often the chruch is functioning in roles that the state
used to occoupy.
