Kate Neiswender, Esq. Posted an update on Shortwaves for Freedom
Story update Mar 10, 2022

Our daily broadcasts via WRMI on shortwave continue and we'll have an exciting announcement soon on additional transmitters and frequencies we'll be utilizing outside the United States. 

Axios has an article out about use of shortwave to bypass Russia's media restrictions. It credits VOA with resuming shortwave broadcasting. Actually that credit goes to you, not VOA. The article, however, does include VOA correspondent Steve Herman's tweet that correctly mentions this grassroots crowdfunding effort, Shortwaves for Freedom.

The Economist also is out with an article mentioning the value of shortwave radio to keep Ukrainians in touch with the world: https://www.economist.com/science-and-technology/technologies-old-and-new-keep-ukrainians-in-touch-with-the-world/21808083?giftId=43470ae3-670d-4e55-b453-edc48813a95a

Stay tuned. More news soon.
