Ethereal curtain. The biggest shortwave station in the world

摘要

Roughly 160 km north of Los Angeles, at the foot of the Sierra Nevada mountains, a giant antenna pours megawatts of power into the sky. The Voice of America's shortwave station at Delano is an isolated site making it ideal for experiments in super power with electromagnetic energy. Here, the author describes how VOA Delano was rebuilt in the last days of the Cold War to force its message past Soviet jamming by sheer power.
