2014 PRAs are now shipping
I've been packing & shipping the latest PRA over the past few days. From the receipts, it looks like those who already ordered should be receiving their copies throughout next week. I'll also have copies available at the Winter SWL Fest for anyone who's planning to be there.
From now until 2/28/15, I'm taking advance orders for $15 + $3 shipping ($18) in the US. If you want a copy, send the $ via PayPal to info (at symbol) hobbybroadcasting.com or send a check or money order to:
Hobby Broadcasting
POB 109
Blue Ridge Summit, PA 17214
I did check on the international shipping costs. International postage keeps increasing at ridiculous rates. This year, the price to Canada is $10 and it's $15 to the rest of the world. It looks like it would be about $22 to send three copies to Europe, so if a few friends want to save some $ in shipping, they could order a few copies together and split the shipping price.
This edition is 178 pages and features a look at the pirate activities during the government shutdown of 2013, the Rohde & Schwarz SK010 transmitter, and Radio Free Nashville. It also contains entries on 187 shortwave pirates that were reported in North America during 2013. The book also will contain an audio CD with clips from 70 different stations. For those of you who've never seen a copy of a PRA, it is a perfect-bound paperback book with a color glossy cover, approximately 5.5" x 8.5". This is the 5th edition.
