Here's a question. Back in the late 1930s-early 1940s many homes had
big console radios with standard broadcast AM and a couple of shortwave
bands. Table radios with shortwave bands were abundant too. Was there
really a lot of shortwave listening going on in that time period?
Or did manufacturers put shortwave into radios as sort of a "luxury"
feature? (or way to one-up your neighbors)
