I am thinking about moving abroad and would like to set up an internet
connection from a VERY remote location. Is it possible to do it via
shortwave radio?


Possible how?

In the technical sense, of course it's possible. The technology to
do so (via satellite) exists now, and is available to those who know
where to look and who to pay subscription fees to.

In the logistic and licensing sense, it's a much more complicated
issue. You'd probably be best off investigating a satellite feed with
existing technology. A google search for "satellite internet" (include
the quotes) turns up a whole raft of hits, including such names as
Starband and DirecPC.

Good hunting.
