Reply #8: I usually listen every day [View All]

But I went out, and my girlfreind had control of the car radio, so I was stuck listening to Bachman Turner Overdrive instead of NPR. I sleep with the radio on, and the earphone plugged into my ear, withe the Atlanta Air America station on, and then at 5 AM switch to either the BBC or NPR, and listen for a while nad go back to sleep. Whenever I wake up I cna strt listening immediately. I keep my television set to Closed Captioning so I can red the dialog, and keep the radoi going, wuither NPR or BBC, or Radio Netherlands, Budapest, Slovakia, Voice of Russia, Turkey, SLovakia or the Ukraine. Depends on what I feel like, but I always listen to one hour of each shortwave station a day, and the rest is on NPR. I am going out this weekend and getting a Skybox, so I can get XM radio, nad it also gas a build in CD MP3 player, and costs less than an XM or Suirius radio with the Boombox. I just wish that these satellite radio services would carry mopre international broadcasters than the BBC.
