Interesting article, and as someone who regularly listened to SW radio broadcasts back in the 70s and 80s, in some ways I'm not surprised that people have "moved on". I recently resurrected my Sony ICF-SW100 and found the airwaves dominated by Russia and China, but no surprise there really. However, I still think there's potential for a SW service in certain scenarios: if there was a major international disaster, short wave would probably be able to reach a large number of listeners, whereas the report author's FM transmitters would almost certainly not.
