Passport to World Band Radio

Front Cover
International Broadcasting Services, Oct 19, 2004 - Performing Arts - 592 pages
World band radio explodes with hundreds of programmes you cannot find elsewhere. From the matchless reporting of the BBC to the musical heights of the Andes, it is a broadcast menu that is one part Newsweek, another National Geographic. Every station stands out. Comedy from England. Science from Russia. Waltzes from Austria. It is the depth and variety that is missing from ordinary radio and TV. Passport to World Band Radio covers it all. What's on. What to buy. How to get started. Passport is the world's best-selling short-wave guide, trusted by over a million readers since 1985.
