20) Are there any short wave radio station from HK?
No. but if you have a shortwave (Duan3Bo1) radio, you
will hear "the Voice of Free China" (Zi4You2 Zhong1Guo2 zhi1 Sheng1)
broadcasting in Mandarin, Cantonese, English, and Taiwanese
(Min3Nan2Yu3), etc. In North America try listening around dinner time
on 5950, 9680, 11860 kilohertz; in Europe: 21720, 17750; in Australia:
9765; in Japan: 15345, 7130, 9730, 11745. There are several other
regions/languages it broadcasts to/in. Write: "The Voice of Free
China, P.O.Box 24-38, Taipei, TAIWAN, R.O.C" for a schedule. (They
don't also tell you the schedule of Zhong1Guang3 Xin1Wen2 Wang3*,
though. But it uses the same frequencies.)
