@flockofnazguls 50% of large/licenced stations still running isn't that bad, although most is "soft propaganda" from Beijing plus a fair number of religious stations. BBC recently reactivated two HF frequencies to transmit to Ukraine, and China and India are using DRM for higher quality audio for educational broadcasts in rural areas (makes sense given the large physical size to be covered). A few pirates still active too (although I haven't heard any yet)
