Laura, welcome to world (literally) of Shortwave Radio. Many things to
listen to, other countries, planes over the ocean, ships on the ocean, Ham radio operators, and the list goes on. By all means, find and/or subscribe to Monitoring Times. They have a section that is like a TV Guide to the International Broadcast Bands (plus lots of other info). Quite helpful. Ask questions here or in Yahoo groups. You'll find most of us willing to help. Dan, I *loved* your explanation of the ionosphere. I've never seen it explained quite that way before, but you made it so eloquent and simple. I'll have to remember it. Eric KA6USJ |

Why Thank You Eric !
In Ionospheric terms, It's been an Odd Winter; with The Music Shows on WBCQ on weekends being blanked out; New York, and even Pittsburgh being in the " Skip Zone" but VOA from Botswana on the same frequency ( 7.415) coming in quite clearly. A Very High Tide in the Ionosphere, slowly creeping up from the sandy Shoreline and Flooding redwood sun decks well above normal high water . One can free dive down to look at electronically Submerged Mercedes in the car Port, I suppose. Rush Hour Traffic / Weather reports from Aukland (Mostly fair, Gales in the Southern Isle) and Hearing about the Latest in Fiji enlighten my day. Once, in the spring, Radio New Zealand was as clear as a local A.M Station; - calm Flat seas, I suppose.
