That is a great way to learn a language. You can also listen to DW on
the web but I still prefer the shortwave receiver. Sometimes I listen to
Spanish radio on AM, which could be as much as a third of the stations
out here in California. The problem is that their 'bit rate' is at least
twice as high as ours. That goes even higher when they comment a soccer
game.

I thought about that but then I didn't want a flood of stuff going
through my email account. Also, it makes the whole process so
non-realtime. I wish they were allowing newsreader access just like
Cadsoft does with their support forums. Or maybe TI should have rather
done that directly. I find that this page flipping on the web interface
for the MSP group is terrible. I have no idea why companies like
National or TI didn't embrace the well established Usenet protocol.
