RM> TM>I just got a radio shack shortwave radio. It's the one that costs 
RM> $199 
RM> and it
RM> TM>has sw, mw, and lw. I'm wondering if I could get some kind of freq

RM> TM>cause I don't know the scedules of all the radio stations and what 
RM> freqs
RM> they
RM> TM>operate on. Can some one post a list?

RM> I'll tell you one thing..... If you got that radio for LW, don't
RM> expect to hear much.  Longwave (150 - 400 KHz) isn't used for
RM> broadcasting in North America but it is used in Europe.
RM> If you're lucky, you MIGHT hear NDR (NordDeutcher Rundfunk -
RM> North German Radio) at around 151 Khz.
    I've never been able to hear anything on LW.
RM> I believe Florida (Eastern _Standard_ Time) is 5 hours behind
RM> Greenwich time.
    Yes.
    The best thing he could do if his radio lacks a digital clock is to buy a 
$10 digital clock to sit next to it.
RM> One strong station you should be able to hear is Radio Netherland.
RM> Tune to 6.165 MHz (in the 49 meter hand) at 21:30 you local time
RM> (same as 05:30 GMT) for their daily English-language broadcast
RM> meant for the Eastern part of north America.
    Or the BBC hourly news every hour, 5.975 MHz.
