Guys. I just bought a shortwave radio receiver.

I kind of hate myself a little bit more now. Anyone else get weirdly interested by the shortwave banter on the latest Bombcast?

I listened to the.buzzing station for awhile, but that's as far as I went.

Meant to post this in Off-Topic. Oops.

@notdavid: A mod can move it if you ask I'm sure.

I have been interested in checking out HAM radio exams and seeing some of the material that would need to be studied.

Any pictures of it? I'm intrigued,

This is the one I got.

It's interesting for sure, but I'm not sure I'd ever want to buy one myself.

All you sheep with your Ham radios and thermos flasks. GB should have a shopping channel on cable. They say it, you buy it. :D
