Talk:BBC World Service

From article: "Some PBS stations in the US carry daily half-hour programmes from BBC World Service." - PBS is TV isn't it? I think someone's got BBC World and the World Service mixed up. Am I right..? -- Tom- 23:53, 2 Apr 2004 (UTC)

I've removed that line from the article as I can find no evidence that PBS relay the World Service. -- Tom- 07:35, 5 Apr 2004 (UTC)
I think you mean NPR (National Public Radio) who are the radio equivalent of PBS. Stations like WNCY in New York relay the World Service several times a day - see http://www.wnyc.org/shows/bbc_ws.

hi, I'm not sure about the exact meaning of dramatic programming in this sentence: In addition, the World Service provides educational, dramatic, and sports programming. - could the original author clarify this? See my question and the replies over at Wikipedia:Reference_desk. regards, High on a tree 16:24, 6 May 2004 (UTC)

I would have taken it to mean radio dramatisations of books and plays. Tom- 18:57, 21 Jul 2004 (UTC)

North america under Transmission section

There's a lot of information about receiving BBCWS in the transmission section. The second paragraph has gotten messy (partly my fault). Perhaps it should be cut down to a simple paragraph about receiving via shortwave. The north america/satellite radio/NPR/domestic material could be moved to a new paragraph. Should the cessation of NA shortwave be moved to history? Jtatum 21:52, 12 Apr 2005 (UTC)
