The Internet Guide To International Broadcasters (The Internet Guide To Shortwave Broadcasters) (C) 1992-1994 Thorsten Koch Compilation: Thorsten Koch Revision: November 20th, 1994 The intention of this list is to give a directory to the Internet's users who are in the (especially: shortwave) broadcasting business. There are many FAQ's in Usenet's rec.radio.shortwave group such as: "How can I email station ...?". I hope that this list will reduce these questions and have compiled a compilation of many station's addresses. Also included are some club addresses and specialist's addresses. I also included some gopher, ftp and Usenet news info and infos on HTML pages in Internet's new and booming technology, World Wide Web (WWW). If someone knows addresses, please send them to me!
