hey guys, i read a couple of posts and i must say you guys are far
beyond me in my understanding of the whole damn thing. but today I
bought a $40.00 shortwave radio @ Radio Shack thinking that I'd come
home and listen to all sorts of broadcasts from the globe over and all I
freakin' get is some queer broadcast coming in very vaguely from Canada.
Should I go buy a bigger radio? am I doing something wrong? I looked
at the frequencies list and just can't seem to get in on anything?
suggestions?

Did you try connecting an antenna?
