What's On Shortwave? | Intro to Shortwave, Part 2

Enjoy listening to SW and AMDXing. Plenty of stations out there. De WK0Y

I can only repeat what others have said. Thank you

Dude, speak up!

get a shortwave so you can compare various cults and decide which one fits you best

What a fantastic informative tutorial. If only you were my electronics, psychology teacher. Thank you so much.

A great presentation Sir. I think the SWR/Pirate broadcasts is in our future considering the corrupt globalized governing forces.

This is ASMR for radio heads😊

I’ll give you $10 and pay shipping for that notebook that you were writing that stuff in

These are great videos! I am learning so much! I always wanted to know about SW but all I could ever find was super technical stuff. This is perfect for me trying to learn and figure out what type of radio I want. Thank you for your efforts putting this together. I really appreciate it

👏

when the SHTF people will wish they had a shortwave radio......

There is a lot of truth in pirate radio, not oddballs.

thanks for the video! i just got into short wave, something fun to do in the evening that gives my eyes a rest

That's a cool way of looking at it. "Radio energy is natural, but we humans are crafty.... and we learned to domesticate it."

Great video series. Im a ham as well...a brand new one. I'm getting back into shortwave as well since its the best means of commo to be utilized in the event of a long lasting crisis. It's old dependable tech. BBC reactivated 2 shortwave stations to broadcast news into Ukraine.

It's a shame shortwave really died out due to newer communications technologies. But there is plenty of equipment out there just waiting to be reactivated.

I hear intermittent mandarin Chinese every now and then.....who knows what that is.
I've also heard number stations....in English and in Spanish. that's spy stuff for sure.
easiest untraceable way to send coded messages. fascinating stuff .

I'd love to hang out with you and listen to some shortwave.

Thanks and regards from Serbia.

I bought a little Tecsun radio and was really hoping I could sweep the entire SW spectrum but now I realize it's only giving me 10 discrete bands to choose from. I was hoping to find weird stations in between the bands.

Thanks, Tom. You made this subject very simple, getting directly to the doing, instead of just discussing radios. I understood everything very clearly and it made me feel more like getting one of those radios, like that one you have (I'd like to know what brand and model that is) . Exciting subject . I would love to listen to SSB and CW, to hear Morse transmission. I think Morse would be fun.

There are so many shortwave radios out there to choose from. Are they all basically the same?

New sub here! I've watched two or three of your shows and i find them great for me to learn. I'm new to this shrotwave radio listening and by new I just got my first receiver two days ago and was so lost. LOL I've been watching and reading about it and starting to understand a very little. I did buy the book Ham radio for dummies. I felt like that was me a dummy. You do really good teaching me anyway. Are you a teacher? Anyway thanks going on to the next show.

High Tom I am a Radio presenter

Given world events, I've gotten back into shortwave radio. Thanks for the excellent content. It's a brilliant primer.

Great information for a beginner like me, I was sitting listening in my car in a petrol station just outside London . Thanks for posting .

Thanks. Love the HFU.

Well done. Thank You! Please make Part 3 with tuning instructions

maybe its Naive but i bought a mini sw radio, just to try to listen to ukraines BBC world service. However, I dont know how to enter the frequency with the manual style (similar to the one you show). I can scan around and found interesting stuff but i cant find a tutorial that shows how to find a specific frequency. Any tips?
