With no public announcement or fanfare, the Voice of America has phased out some 14 hours per day of international shortwave broadcast transmissions and will cease broadcasting on some of its customary frequencies, effective July 1. Another 10 hours of daily cuts have been made to Radio Free Europe/Radio Liberty (RFE/RL) and Radio Free Asia (RFA) broadcasts. The Broadcasting Board of Governors …

In this video I go through the theory of HF radio wave propagation. In part 2 of this video I’ll do a practicle demonstation of shortwave radio reception through various radios and antennas / antenna tuner. Concepts covered n this HAM radio tutorial: * Ground wave propagation * Sky wave propagation * Ionosphere layers D, E, F * Radio wave skip and hop zones * Pedersen Ray * EME Earth Moon Earth radio communications * Long path and short path radio waves Equipment used / mentioned in this video series: * K-Po WR2100 PLL Synthesized World Band Receiver. * Tecsun (Kaito) PL-389MP Short Wave radio * Yaesu FT-897 HF/VHF All Mode Transceiver * Yaesu FT-950 HF / 50MHz band All Mode Transceiver * Yaesu VX-6 Submersible Dual-Band FM Transceiver * Yaesu FT-817ND solar powered portable go-pack * Yaesu FRG-7000 Receiver * RigExpert AA-200 Antenna analyzer * Simple wire antenna * Par electronics Par End-Fedz EF-10-20-40 full length half wave dipole * Buddipole™- hf/vhf portable dipole antenna system * MFJ Deluxe Travel Antenna Tuner – MFJ-904H * Amateur Extra HAM radio license – KD8LON
swling.com A good link to get started.. www.ssrsi.org Lots of links here for when you really get into it! www.jr.com A rundown on various features try to get a radio with SSB capability! SSB stands for “Single Side Band”. This particular band is not a carrier of frequencies but rather a derivative of them, hence it’s name “side”. If we took one AM frequency and dissected it, we’d find that it consists of even more bands, in fact two: USB (Upper Side Band) and LSB (Lower Side Band). Not all shortwave radios can receive SSB signals. If your shortwave radio doesn’t read SSB, then when you tune to a channel that’s transmitting on this band, what you hear will not be understandable. This channel usually permits reception of amateur radio and military/commercial/maritime communication. High-end shortwave radios have the ability to receive SSB signals.
