Best magazines for shortwave listener ?
 
What do you suggest are the best monthly magazines for shortwave listeners ?

Michael Chatel August 18th 04 05:09 AM

I like "Monitoring Times". It has some Shortwave related articles and
content, but then also covers a broader audience of "monitoring" (ex.
hams, people with scanners, etc...)

One reason I like Monitoring Times, is that I'm from Canada, and they
do try to include a bit of Canadian content too.

That depends on where you are. In the UK, 'Shortwave Magazine' and
'Radio Active' are two reasonably good titles.

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.

Monitoring Times is also my first choice, and I also subscribe to Pop Comm.
Occasionally I pickup a copy of Shortwave Magazine (British) at the
newsstand.
