Re: [Swprograms] Sanford Unger on the VOA's Status

And Rich, the "average American" who's taxes pay for VOA deserves a lot
MORE info on how those dollars are spent. We can't even get program
schedules the old-fashioned way!

I remember in the early 1970s when the skeds were monthy (!) and every
so often a friendly note would be inside to remember to "get next
month's." The standard-size envelope was jammed every month.  No more.

Yes, because it has been a part of their culture. I can't say the same
for the VOA.

The 648 kHz coverage is for most of the day, IIRC. 
The WS about 2 years ago commissioned focus group participation from the
UK. I volunteered to participate but they wouldn't pick up the plane
fare. 
The average Brit is much more aware and appreciative of the WS than the
average American is of the VOA, I'd surmise.

Not so sure about that, Scott. The WS is carried overnight domestically
by Radio 4 and 648 kHz. MW (main WS MW frequency for northwest Europe)
is well heard throughout much of the British Isles.
