Shortwave is dying. Why would any store want to carry what's dead?
Only the occasional pocket protector guy is looking for shortwave antennas.

Streaming audio from the international broadcasters is where it's at.
Come on get into the 21st century -- computers, wi-fi, gps. You are
looking for Dixie cups and string.

I have been to radio shack several times over the years inquiring about
antennas for short wave radios. I always get a rather blank response and
they never seem to have anything. They sell shortwave radios...so why not
sell good external antennas? perhaps Radio Shack isn't as good as one
might

Radio Shack hires idiots. Go elsewhere, the net has lots of shortwave
stuff.
