I would truly enjoy meeting and talking with an experienced short
wave radio operator located in Malibu, CA. As a newbie to
shortwave radio it would be great seeing and listening firsthand
to a quality setup.


Well then you may want to talk to:

Stewart H. MacKenzie, WDX6AA "World Friendship Through Shortwave
Radio Where Culture and Language Meet" ASWLC -

Stewart is in Huntington beach and sometimes has meetings at his
house. I've never attended one myself.
Telamon, You are one of the most prolific contributors to
rec.radio.shortwave and I enjoyed perusing your many postings. I
think you are very upbeat on the R8B and I am leaning towards buying
one. I have a great back yard and could place an antenna there.
Perhaps one day I could invite you for lunch since we are near
neighbors. Please keep up your great work.

The R8B is a great radio. Whatever you get for a radio be sure to let
us know in the newsgroup. What kind of antenna are you thinking of
putting up?
