Yes.  But you see, Ricky, if you still use a shortwave radio in the  
Western Hemisphere, the WS has made it quite clear that you are not  
the kind of listener it is seeking.  Insomniacs who listen to FM?  Or  
owners of a DRM receiver (which, incidentally, still does not  
exist)?  Now that's a different story.
