Im thinking of dumping my cable TV. That will leave me with only two
local TV stations to get via an antenna.
Im considering buying a shortwave receiver that I can listen to while
I am doing things around the house.
Is there interesting programming available via shortwave? Is my idea
sound? What good receivers are worth looking at?
