I remember listening to Radio Moscow right around the time Ceaucescu (the ousted Romanaian dictator) was “lamin’ it”, but hadn’t yet been caught. There was speculation he fled to the USSR. The Radio Moscow announcer, Joe Adamov (who probably spoke better English than most of us here!) had nothing good to say about the despot, and said in effect, “we don’t want him.”

Joe Adamov was the best thing about Radio Moscow.

One of the coolest things about shortwave is the real time unfiltered aspect of it.

The internet is great too.

It is wonderful to make contact with some one who has boots on the ground in a world hotspot even if they are spinning propaganda. Listening to several sources as things unfold really engages the old brainbox, unlike listening to CNN or Fox alone.
