[GreenKeys] Shortwave Receivers

[Ed Sharpe Archivist for SMECC via GreenKeys]

I do not SWL as much as I did
but in my youth   I could put in  hours a night !
 
Back then was no Internet   to explore far away
places  so  the shortwave radio was king!

GN  OMs;

Me and my Dad went over to one of his fellow co-worker's
house  for dinner. His fellow co-worker was an amateur
radio operator. I had no  idea what that meant. After
dinner he took us out to the garage, pulled out  a home-brew
regenerative shortwave receiver, connected a piece of "random  wire"
to it, and fired it up.

There are no words in the English  language to explain how
mesmerized I was!

Well - if you were a  shortwave indoctrinate - here is a website for  you:
