Monitoring Times tops the list for me. I also enjoy reading Popular
Communications (aka "PopComm").


I used to read "Popular Communications" years ago. Then I stopped for various
reasons. One was that I no longer had a working shortwave radio and couldn't
get another one for a long while. Well,

I recently picked up a few issues of both magazines, and today, I also like
"Monitoring Times" better.

I very vaguely seem to recall some shortwave communications magazine before
Popular Communications started, but I can't recall what the name of that
magazine was. It went out of business years ago.

I don['t remember if it stopped before Popular Communications started or if it
lasted a while longer and stopped after Popular Communications had started for
a while.

Maybe some other "old timers" can recall what it was or at least what it might
have been.

I vaguely recall one called "Communications World".

That vaguely seems to sound familiar to me. I think that was probably it. That
that was probably the one I read regularly before "Popular Communications" ever
came along.

I remember having one around 1976-1978, when I first got interested in
SWL'ing.

The Shortwave Guide from Lawrence J. Miller Publishing was a favorite of
mine in the 1980's. Larry Magne did some nice receiver reviews.
