I have a DX 392, and I am going to Israel in a month. I will pack it

bringing a shortwave into some Middle eastern countries is frowned
upon.

Israel was never one of them. You should have a lot of fun if you don't
mind listening to non English broadcasts. Yes, you can get the VOA and the
BBC, but there's a lot more in the world, and you can hear it from here.

Make sure it has a good set of batteries so you can show the security people
that it's a radio and not a bomb (this is not a joke). The power system here
is 230 volt 50Hz.

If you have a ham license, bring it. It's valid here for 90 days.

If you are going to be in Jerusalem, look me up.
