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!

Thorsten Koch
