I too have been exceptionally busy in my business activities in October (nearly 3 months worth of sales in one month to cope with) so sadly I have little time for the enjoyable creative side of being Editor.

World Radio TV Handbook 2010 Once again we are pleased to team up with our friends at the British DX Club to supply pre- publication copies of the World radio TV Handbook. See pages 63/64 for full details. In previous years we also offered Passport to Worldband Radio but that is not being published this year. This is sad but not wholely unxpected news given the continued decline of shortwave broadcasting and its almost total irrelevance to the “man in the street” in the affluent countries of the world. Larry Magne must be congratulated on a tireless and professional job spanning 25 years. For more on this visit http://www.passband.com/passport-to-world-band-radio%c2%ae-in-limbo/ Receiver News Gary de Bock writes, “Thank you very much for publishing the recent 2009 Ultralight Radio AM- DX Shootout article, and many other of my articles (which is greatly appreciated). As luck would have it, immediately after completion of the 2009 Shootout article, the leading Chinese radio manufacturer released their most innovative DSP pocket radio, which would have been a strong contender for top honors in the Shootout. The radio has multiple DSP selectivity options (1, 2, 3, 4 and 6 kHz), and has already been used by many North American DXers to log TA's and TP's in stock form. Because of the great interest in this new Tecsun PL-310 AM-LW-FM-SW model, I quickly prepared a full review article detailing its capabilities for interested DXers, including a comparison with the top-rated Shootout model, the Kchibo D96L. ( lack of space means this will appear next month ). Now on with the show 73s Steve . Medium Wave News 55/06 3 November 2009 2009 Ultralight Radio AM-DX Shootout Part II by Gary DeBock, Puyallup, WA USA September 2009 Shootout Day Arrives The gallant contestants assembled at noon on September 7, 2009 to decide their fate. They were joined by all surviving contestants of previous Ultralight radio Shootouts, who would join in the competition for ultimate Ultralight performance honors. The R911 and R9012 models were tested with the whip antenna in a vertical position. The D92L and D96L models were tested in the 1 kHz selectivity setting. Comments follow the grade in specific categories. SENSITIVITY: (worst is 0, best is 5; final grade for model is listed after model) 530-TIS 620-KPOJ 750-KXL 1040-CKST 1130-CKWX 1520-KGDD 1650-TIS R911 (B) 3 1 0 0 3 3 4* R9012 (B+) 3 2 0 0 3 3 4* C.C.

SENSITIVITY SUMMARY: The new Kchibo D96L has unsurpassed sensitivity on all AM frequencies, with a slight low and mid band advantage over all current contestants. It also has a slight edge over the DT-400W for top ULR sensitivity. The C.Crane SWP and R9012 are very competitive in sensitivity overall, with a slight high-band edge over the G8, which tends to perform better on the lower frequencies. The R911 tested here has a shade less sensitivity than its R9012 sibling on the low band, and both the D92L and DE1123 models are hopelessly outclassed in weak-signal performance-- primarily because of weakly designed loopsticks.

Organizations can use mass media outlets to change social conditions and encourage political and social intervention. When working with the media, advocates should ‘shape’ their story to incorporate social themes rather than solely focusing on individual accountability. “Develop a story that personalizes the injustice and then provide a clear picture of who is benefiting from the condition.” (Wallack et al., 1999) Merely stating that there is a problem provides no ‘call to action’ for the public. Therefore, advocates should identify a specific solution that would allow communities to take control of the issue. Sexual violence is a public health concern of social injustices. Effective Media Campaigns Local, regional or statewide campaigns can provide a forum for prevention, outreach and raising awareness to create social change. This toolkit will enhance advocates’ abilities to utilize the media for campaigns and other events. Campaigns can include: public service announcements (PSAs), awareness events (Take Back the Night; The Clothesline Project), media interviews, coordinated events at area schools or college campuses, position papers, etc.

  • The Rise of Talk Radio and Its Impact on Politics and Public Policy
    Mount Rushmore: The Rise of Talk Radio and Its Impact on Politics and Public Policy Brian Asher Rosenwald Wynnewood, PA Master of Arts, University of Virginia, 2009 Bachelor of Arts, University of Pennsylvania, 2006 A Dissertation presented to the Graduate Faculty of the University of Virginia in Candidacy for the Degree of Doctor of Philosophy Department of History University of Virginia August, 2015 !1 © Copyright 2015 by Brian Asher Rosenwald All Rights Reserved August 2015 !2 Acknowledgements I am deeply indebted to the many people without whom this project would not have been possible. First, a huge thank you to the more than two hundred and twenty five people from the radio and political worlds who graciously took time from their busy schedules to answer my questions. Some of them put up with repeated follow ups and nagging emails as I tried to develop an understanding of the business and its political implications. They allowed me to keep most things on the record, and provided me with an understanding that simply would not have been possible without their participation. When I began this project, I never imagined that I would interview anywhere near this many people, but now, almost five years later, I cannot imagine the project without the information gleaned from these invaluable interviews. I have been fortunate enough to receive fellowships from the Fox Leadership Program at the University of Pennsylvania and the Corcoran Department of History at the University of Virginia, which made it far easier to complete this dissertation. I am grateful to be a part of the Fox family, both because of the great work that the program does, but also because of the terrific people who work at Fox.
