    Brian and Jason were very excited to finally learn how to do the shortwave dash on the skywave map, especially when they heard that all you need to do is turn the radio on.

    Did you miss it? Brian broke down the fire eating routine he showed off last week in this new video:

    This came out wonderfully. Thanks for letting me come on the show and show off some radios!

    Have a coworker who loves rebuilding antique shortwave radios. He wanted a radio that would only pick up the atomic clock in Texas so he built one from scratch. He wrapped the coils, installed the tubes. It was really amazing to watch. AND IT WORKED

    Oh my goodness, I've been spending the last few days looking up shortwave radios and how they work, just for you to publish this video

    Former military HF operator here. There is a mistake in his explanation of ionospheric layers. D-Layer doesn't exist at night. It recombines into the F-Layer. During the day there is typically the following layers from lowest to highest altitudes. D-Layer, E-Layer, F1-Layer, F2-Layer. At night the ionosphere recombines into typically a single F-layer. The D and E layers are either non-existant or unsuitably thin.

    Shortwave is quite an exotic thing among the radio frequencies because it spreads out in a zig zag shape and really can become a bit unpredictable and almost alive like a living creature. This is why it has so much drift and when you listen to a radio station on shortwave you have this fading and drifting because it's all the atmospheric effects on the radio wave. The weather has a huge impact too and also the seasons.

    I have my ham radio license, and a few weeks back I was doing a contest. I was using a directional antenna pointed west (im on east coast and was trying to pick up stations west of me) and wound up hearing a station in Morocco. Being it is directional, it sent the RF power to the west, all the way around the world over to the person's antenna in Morocco. Looking up his location, it propagated nearly 21,000 miles and he gave me a 5x9 report. By far one of the coolest, and longest contacts that I have made on the radio.

    I work at WRMI, an international shortwave radio station. We have 14 shortwave transmitters. I had to pause the video while I brought up transmitters 12 (5850 kHz) and 13 (7730kHz). It was a fun and informative video.

    I love how radio remains a hobby regardless to how dated people think it is! As someone who just rediscovered an in interest in shortwave myself, this was a great video to watch! It's refreshing to see a video on the subject from people my own age range! Thanks for a great and informative video!

    One night my friends old guitar amp started picking up distant am signals, it was spooky as hell

    This episode just sent me into an hour long research session into the atomic clock and I am speechless

    I was listening to Wolfman Jack in the early '60's while lowriding in my Oakie raked Oldsmobile, on the streets of Lake Tahoe. We were unincorporated then, no police dept.

    Awesome video! As a ham operator myself I enjoy scanning through the frequencies to see what I can find. I wish you had told people how easy it is to become I licensed operator because ham radio is absolutely a survival skill. We are emergency communicators because we require no existing infrastructure to setup and begin communicating with others over large distances when disaster strikes and takes down modern communications infrastructure. As a side note I was working that band on field day and kept listening for my call sign to come across.

    I love this! The video that introduced me to the channel was the Software Defined Radio one, so I’m stoked to see the topic resurfaced!
