Seems quite sad really, I do have a fondess for AM radio, Longwave, MW and SW, and it does seem quite sad to see it all rapidly vanishing. Though fully understandable considering the costs of transmitting and the falling numbers of people using them, you can't keep paying millions for nostalgia alone.
