The only thing I did not like about it, is although I am in Southwest Asia,
I am much closer to Europe/US in lifestyle, finances, technology, world view,
etc.

However, I did answer Asia as my location, because that's where I am.

It probably will skew the results. :-(

Well, that was fun, thanks! I hope the info is helpful. I would have
liked to see some other questions - one bit of trivia that would not
be apparent from their questioning would be whether or not QSLs are
collected from stations not in one's main language.

BpnJ,

One gets the Idea . . . TRhe NASB Survey was really
a Survey as to whether you would "Buy" a new DRM
Shortwave Radio Receiver . . .
http://www.worlddxclub.org.uk/WDXC_NASB-msg.html
-or- http://edxcnews.wordpress.com/

A - These were About your Present Day SWL :
# How long you have been listening to shortwave
# How many shortwave receivers do you have and what kind
# Where do you buy your shortwave receivers
# Do you take shortwave receivers with you when you travel
# How many hours per week do you listen to shortwave
# Are you an amateur radio operator
# Which shortwave stations do you listen to most
# What types of programs do you most like to listen to on shortwave,
and in what languages

B - This was About your Internet Audio Content
Listening of Shortwave Origination :
# Do you listen to international radio broadcasts on other media such
as Internet and mobile phones

C - These were About DRM Broadcasting and
Listening to DRM Shortwave Broadcasts and
"BUYING" a DRM Receiver . . .
# Do you listen to DRM broadcasts
# How much would you be willing to pay for a DRM receiver

well at least that was my impression of the nasb
survey - looking for the hidden agenda ~ RHF
.

You might be right. They only left three choices for what you'd pay
for a DRM RX, and none of them was -0- (my preferred choice). I hope
everybody puts down no more than $100.

Sounds like you're right Roy.

Read a lot of these "surveys" and they are all the same!

It depends on the age of their transmitter tubes. They're strong for a
couple years, then they get weaker and weaker.
