Jonathan Marks' Hitchhikers Guide to DXing re-released

Jonathan Marks writes “It is thirty years ago since I wrote a rather silly parody on international radio broadcasting and based on my favourite radio series at the time, the Hitch-Hikers Guide to the Galaxy. There seemed to be so much to make fun of at the time…the boring propaganda at the height of the Cold War, jamming, the waste of energy shouting from one country to another, and the variable quality of reaction from listeners.”

Parts one,two and three of this classic series are now available to download from the Media Network Vintage Vault at http://jonathanmarks.libsyn.com/ . The rest will follow shortly. I believe I make a brief appearance in one of the episodes.
