Hi, i own a IC-R5 scanner and if i scan in the 150Khz - 20Mhz area on
AM i can pick up shortwave radio, however its not very clear the
clearest ive got is The Voice Of Russia World Service which i can
recive on 6.160 AM, i was wondering if a bigger antenna will improve
my reception, or as my scanner is not really designed for shortwave
listening i shouldnt bother, im in the UK and would be prepared to
fork out some cash for a shortwave reciver but i dont really know
anywhere in the UK that sells them!, also i was wondering where i
could find a list of frequencys for shortwave stations for the UK.

Any advice would be welcomed
Thanx
