Summary: Great Book on Radios, Antennas and Stations
Comment: Passport to Worldband Radio is a new book for me, as I have not seen or heard of this book prior to purchase. I own shortwave radios and antennas, and was looking for a book as a TV Guide to Worldband Radio. This book is wonderful. It is very easy to look up a particular frequency, time or station. I really like the style of this book.

Best however, are their reviews of radios and antennas. I wish that I had this book prior to purchasing an outdoor antenna - I know I could have made a better model selection for a lower price.

A great book! I look forward to yearly revisions.

Summary: I cannot imagine starting out in S/W radio without this book
Comment: I am part of a team of volunteers that are building an orphanage in the Andes of Peru. For my first six months I was isolated from the "world", except for my excursions into Cusco. I decided to get a s/w radio and hook into the news from VOA, BBC, and Voice of the Andes. Now, every morning, I wake up to a new world perspective.

This book was critical in determining my radio choice. This is the "Consumers Report" for world band radios. I bought the top rated Radio Shack (Sangean) portable and couldn't be happier. It was an excellent value and I got it on sale! If you haven't bought a world band radio yet, this book is a must read before you purchase.

The section on antennas is also superb. Though, with my simple portable, a sophisticated antenna is not feasible. The guide also helps you to find and tune into World Band stations. It pinpoints stations by time and channel. "Passport" is a first-class introduction to the world airwaves. Highly Recommended

Summary: A book for few...
Comment: If you don't live in US, simply FORGET this book! If you happen to live in Europe you'll find totally wrong frequency informations in this book. Simply, no help at all! They need to change the name of the book to: "US passport to world band radio".
