Wow. Judging by your, and I use the term lightly, "intelligent" remarks
I must have hit a nerve. When people have no argument, they attack the
person instead of the issue. You just proved my point.

Chill out and go listen to the static.

Radio Shack hires idiots. Go elsewhere, the net has lots of shortwave
stuff.
Shortwave is dying. Why would any store want to carry what's dead?

Same reason a moron would post this drivel to rec.radio.shortwave

Only the occasional pocket protector guy is looking for shortwave antennas.

And you are a highly paid supermarket stock boy.

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.

Yeah, you go key-clown. Why not get together with David and take a few a
few hits off the pipe. It will all be better then.
