Cacatua posted:There are a lot of conspiracy theorists on shortwave, too. One guy I listened to jabbered on about how the government is doing some sort of population control on us by putting chemicals in our food and water. A lot of nutcases also like to rant about some New World Order that's going to destroy us all.

Another Ham guy checking in who also loves SW listening. Here's a random tip: If you're getting odd interference and you happen to have any 'touch lights' (lamps that turn on and off via touch), try unplugging them. It's amazing how much poo poo they spew.

Anyone feel like listing their favorites? Just something like, time, location, frequency and your location would be awesome and a little more 'personal' than scrolling through random spreadsheets of stuff other people listed. I have a feeling most of us share fairly common interests is all.

#shortwave on irc.zirc.org for anyone interested. I'm crashed for the night but thought it might be nice to have a little spot to play some radio.

Illegal Clown posted:The only thing I've gotten out of SSB other than the ear splitting data noise was that it made the people speaking sound like they were attacking the Death Star, which I thought was cool in its own way.
