Upon seeing stations going to Internet only broadcasting, are we
seeing a trend where SW radios will become obsolete?

I think shortwave will become more like scanning or longwave, in that
it will be more about trying to listen to radio signals from other
countries, rather than trying to listen to content not aimed at North
America but already available on the Internet.

Some Scientists around the World are listening for signals from Space, ooofos and stuff.

The only thing left in short wave are the the old nostalgic listeners stuck in the past remembering the old days after that is all long gone, they are the same guys buying these radios from China been so cheap nowadays. In a few years after they are gone short wave will be nothing more than an anachronistic curiosity for historians and sentimentalists.


Hello, and perhaps broadcast SW radio is on the decline but
point-to-point (e.g. Amateur radio), especially long-distance HF, will
always be around IMHO. Comes in real handy when things like hurricanes
temporarily disable your infrastructure (wired/cell phones, internet,
etc). Sincerely, and 73s from N4GGO,
