They're both on at a convenient hour after dinner when there's not much 
else on, and RB always comes in well.  Call me nuts, but I actually *like* 
a lot of the programming on the stations, even if it does sound like it's 
just a reader in a studio.

The only bad thing is that Radio Vilnius, another of my favorites, starts 
at 2330, halfway through the RRI/RB broadcasts.  

And if you're going to ask, one of the things I really like about Radio 
Vilnius is that the shoestring budget they're on means most of the 
programming is translations of reports which seem aimed towards a domestic 
audience, which offers a different perspective than those broadcasters who 
have a lot of expats on staff consciously producing reports for a foreign 
audience (Radio Sweden in particular strikes me as having something odd 
about its sound).  That's also the reason why I always enjoyed listening 
to the German-language offerings of Radio Österreich International, and 
even told them I'd be willing to give up one of the repeats of Report from 
Austria if they'd rearrange the broadcast block to have a longer German-
language block in the middle.
