It's not often that we hear of a new shortwave service starting, but it appears that Zimbabwe might be doing just that, according to VOA. "News 24/7" is scheduled to start on April 18th, and will be funded by Iran.
The closure of Finland's YLE shortwave transmitters at the end of last year left Radio Sweden as one of only two major shortwave broadcasters remaining in the nordic countries (the other being Iceland's infrequently heard RUV.
Radio Sweden broadcasts in fifteen different languages, including English. The station is part of the Sweden's publically owned radio corporation Sveriges Radio (SR). In addition to Radio Sweden, SR operates a number of national and local Swedish radio networks; P1 is the national talk, news and documentary station; P2 plays classical and jazz music; P3 is the national youth broadcaster, playing popular music and P4 consists of 25 local talk stations. Sweden also has a large Finnish speaking minority, and SR caters to them with Sisuradio.
All SR's domestic stations are streamed online here. For those people running Linux who have trouble with their stream-player interface, they have also provided direct links to their stream addresses.
Radio Sweden programs are also available as podcasts, in English, German and Arabic. Swedish programs are available through the extensive Podradio pages.
An article in today's Observer newspaper compares today's internet radio stations with the variety available on shortwave in years gone by. A good read.
