What is a good stationary Shortwave Radio and suggested antenna for SWL listenin!


Question: What is a good stationary Shortwave Radio and suggested antenna for SWL listening!.!?
I'm mostly fascinated with numbers stations, uk football, military radio and DXing overseas!. I'm interested in finding far off radio stations to listen to, and am looking for a good Shortwave Radio that would be less mobile and more of a base station!. I would be willing to attach an outside antenna with a feed, but keep it as simple as possible, I live in San Diego, CA and have limited space!. If anyone can help please let me know! :)Www@Enter-QA@Com


Answers:
Usually communications grade receivers are what most people use who are deep into listening!. There are a few receivers only made by ICOM for instance with the grand Daddy being about $10,000US but most I know use ham grade gear that you can usually find for a few hundred dollars

You don't say how much limited space you have!. Most build loop antennas that encircle a person's back yard for the best reception (a 300 foot or half mile loop is better but who wants to hear a lightning crash 300 miles away)

There are many active antennas out there as well as in the ham community antennas built for hamming off of balconies of apartments if you are truly limited in space!.

If not, this may help :
