A review of the 2024 edition of the World Radio and TV Handbook

[@whollyunaware5185]

Thanks so much for your annual reminder and review of "our" handbook. I appreciate your continued support of WRTH to help keep it going. It truly is a terrific reference book to assist in furthering our hobby. Thanks again, Clint, and have a great 2024.

Thank you Alan. The same to you Sir. 73

Nice overview. I like the SW frequency section with the addition of broadcast times, a nice touch. The new Perseus review looks quite in-depth, look forward to reading that.

[@OxfordShortwaveLog]

Thank you! Hope you enjoy the book! 73

Good, informative review, many thanks for posting.

[@OxfordShortwaveLog]

Glad it was helpful!

[@STR82DVD]

Happy holidays lad! My lord, the WRTH is more of a pamphlet than a handbook this year lad. 73

[@OxfordShortwaveLog]

Thank you Sir! Actually it's the same size as last year - lots of good info. Happy New Year! 73

[@STR82DVD]

@@OxfordShortwaveLog Good to hear lad. I do remember it being the size of a Gutenberg Bible though. Just saying lad. Happy New Year man! 73

Thank you Sir! Have a great 2024! 73

[@georgematheson7289]

Ahoy from the north of scotland👋 , still hooked on my small (cheap) sw radio , every band was buzzing last night , fascinating ! Can you point me in the direction of any reading where I can learn a bit more about the radio hobby , jargon busting , Ariel's etc etc ? If you don't mind that is , cheers

Didnt know Wellbrook had closed shop - was going to give mine away as I turned my KiwiSDR off, but reconsidering now as I could use it on the 7300 or get a better dedicated receiver. Still will keep it now !

[@OxfordShortwaveLog]

Definitely keep your Wellbrook! 73

[@rjy8960]

It doesn't look like the wrth online website has the 2024 version up at the moment. I'll keep an eye open.

[@OxfordShortwaveLog]

OK.

[@estebhano]

Thanks for the video, I am assesing to buy one and wonder whether it really has all the info I would like to find. I see from your video it has CW stations, if i understood you well, (are they some kind of beacons, or transmit also varies info, news,....), are there meteorological stations that transmit weather maps? Only for the information of broadcast station addresses for QSL cards it worths, I think. Thanks again and Best Regards.

[@OxfordShortwaveLog]

They are aircraft beacons. There are satellite that transmit weather images. NOAA 18 and 19 on 137.9125 and 137.1 MHz, respectively. 73

[@estebhano]

I was referring, for example, to Navtex stations. But, thanks anyway. 73

[@bucksboatanchors3328]

Thanks for this video. The 2024 edition looks very interesting and I shall order a copy in the next week or two. Have you heard anything, good or bad, about the Web App which they now offer in addition to the book? 73.

[@OxfordShortwaveLog]

You're welcome. Not heard any feedback on the web app - might give it a try. 73

[@ericbond5276]

Does it list music stations from online radiobox?

[@OxfordShortwaveLog]

No I don't think so

[@ericbond5276]

@@OxfordShortwaveLog Thx for the answer!

[@dxer22000]

as much as I'd like to buy the book, it comes in at a whopping $90AUD.

[@OxfordShortwaveLog]

That is a lot.....

[@plls5]

$102 from Amazon. Yikes!.......just ordered it off their website instead.

[@OxfordShortwaveLog]

That is a lot!!!
