"Broadcast" here refers to any material intended to be received by a public
audience--or something like that; I don't know the exact legal meaning (but
it's the legal meaning, not the technical one, that matters).  Conversations
transmitted over a wireless telephone are not "broadcast" in this sense.
Neither, for that matter, are CB and ham radio conversations; while you can
listen to these if you like, it's illegal to record them and play them back
to your friends later without the consent of the people involved.
