Hey guys, just wonderin'. I was listening to 3.380 last night. I listen mostly listen to ham ops. Every once in awhile, I get interested in BBC or some other international broadcast. I use a RS 394 with a long wire antenna.

Wyatt im WPE2LJN remember thoes? Back 40 years ago it was a shortwave call issued by popular electronics i still have the thing just for kicks!
Right now i use my alinco dx-70 ot Ft-840 as a shortwave reciver but i have a HQ-129 stored away with is very nice and still works well.
if you go to www.qrz.com/wa4gch you should find a photo of my station its a few years old
