Here we go again.

On 7415 at 0000 listening to a nice VOA 50's music program. Great stuff. Now
it is 0100 nothing but static.

I am new to shortwave and perhaps this goes with the territory, if so why do we
love shortwave so much???????

I'll do a search for Gigunda antennas, wish me luck.

I hear Gigunda has a pretty good line of antennas. Never owned one myself, but I've
heard that others swear by em (or was it at em?), at any rate good luck finding
one. The Gigunda Companys output is mighty low, and there is a waiting list.

LOL We love fickle stuff. Else we'd be DX-ing FM stations, instead. (Yet,
those, too, can get iffy with weather changes.)
