While rummaging through an "antique" store, my local daughter found,

and got
for me, a Packard-Bell Shortwave Log and Tuning Guide. Published in

1939, the
thin little booklet cost a princely (then) sum of fifty cents --

equivalent to
about $10 now.

That should be interesting! There were a few US SW stations at the
time. They were used for propaganda broadcasts during the WW2 and most
were absorbed into the VOA after the war. One example was Crosley's
transmitter in Bethany, Ohio.
