Default What is the most effective method for finding SW broadcasts?

In article . com,

I have found, having started 2 days ago, that there are three ways to
search for SW broadcasts:

1. Hunting, one station at a time, on each meter band.

2. Scanning quickly through each meter band.

3. Looking at a list of broadcast times and stations for your area that
someone has put together and directly putting these frequencies in.

How do you do it?


I'm not quite sure what you mean by #1 but I mostly do #3 since I'm a
broadcast listener for the most part. I also like to do #2 but slowly as
stations fade in and out so you have to go slow when listening for the
weak stations.
