I would love to have a Web Radio that I could tune into without having to sit at my computer. Do you know of anything like that where you can type in the web link?

I had a shortwave radio once, but the reception was bad. Any suggestions where to get one?

I looked at Radio Shack... and walked right out again!

Gee, I don't know how you might listen to web radio while you're away frome home--maybe a laptop with some kind of wireless ISP connection. I know someone who manages to listen in differnt rooms in his house by using wireless speakers connected to his PC (a pair goes for under a $100).

As for shortwave radio, I agree the reception is poor at best--but fortunately with a ten dollar twenty-foot long wire antenna from radio shack, Frank's show comes in pretty strong when the weather is clear.

I don't know why you walked out of radio shack--I hear they make good stuff. My brother bought a shortwave radio on sale from them that seemed a faithful knock-off of a very expensive brand for maybe a third the price of the original--but that was during a sale (which they have periodically, check their website).

But even with the static shortave is better than AM.

If you really want to know what to listen to type the keywords, "hate radio broadcasts" into a search engine, then read the reviews on liberal web pages--the more the liberals condemn a show, the more fun the show probably is!

You're right, I was being unfair. Actually the best AM radiio I ever bought was from Radio Shack. How soon we forget!

You have a point about the liberal sites, and I find lots of great info at www.google.com so searching Hate Talk Radio, would probably be fun!

Off topic, I have found fantastic information by searching items like "HIllary, Bin Laden, 1993" at www.google.com or other entries like that. It's amazing what news reports and information is forgotten!

The most fascinating links I found, was when I heard from the Dana Roth show that Hitler had youth camps on the East Coast during the War to train "his kind" here in the US, so I went to google, and typed "Hitler, East Coast" ...what came up knocked my socks off, there was a documentary about finding a German lost sub sinking only 55 miles off the coast of New Jersey. The date of sinking is estimated at April of 1945 give or take a few weeks...can you believe that!

Strange but true!
