Comment on Have Your Say by Craig
I live in boston massachusetts and was looking for the short wave frequency to listen to the armed forces radio and television network. I used to listen to them to get sporting events. How would I find it.

Thanks Lee - Good to know the paper version of The Guide is still out there albeit in a state. You must have one of the rare unsigned ones! We take a pride in our ability to print from the web version, so you could build yourself a new one... Anyone else still reading the paper version?

Thanks Steve - It was a good marker for us, too... First heard it back in the 60s on a 19 set. Always wanted to know what it was for...

I have owned a copy of the Listener's Guide since the early 1980's and having read and re-read it to the point where it literally fell apart and I had to re-bind it it's great to see the modern version on the 'net. A qoute from my copy of the Guide " ...no home is complete without the ability to download onto twin Winchesters" how times HAVE changed!

Thanks Clifford, we think the site is awesome, too... Have added your link and wonder if there are any radioheads out there who would like to add theirs?

Comment on Elvaston Rally – End Of An Era by J. Milan
I feel the same pain as many others. The joy of playing with radios and listening to shortwave is slowly being strangled by lack of interest and the internet. Yes it's just a hobby for me, but it was a great adventure. During the 50's I could listen to Moscow Mailbag and Radio Swan. I did my listening in the middle of the winter at 9000' in a Colorado mining camp, it was the only other source of entertainment I had. I hung a aerial between my house and my neighbors and used a little Phillips shortwave receiver to roam the bands. I am retired now but the simple pleasure I got from my hobby was something I am glad I was able to experience. Maybe we are at the end of an era or maybe beginning a new one!?
