I grew up with shortwave radio. From the 60s until the late 80s it was alive with state sponsored stations around the world. With 24\7 non-stop propaganda, it was a great tool to teach young people just how full of crap governments can be.

[@curtisa3069]

When I was a kid on my great-uncle's radio, I liked listening to Radio Moscow/Kiev/Cuba and then Voice of America to hear the completely opposite descriptions of the same events. My skepticism regarding "news" media grew from there.

Hi there, I am new to your channel. Like you, I am a novice in radio. I am a retired LEO and worked for a Motorola Shop in my area for some time, but I am retired now. If I might, I would like to pass on to you one piece of information about Scanners. Many States do not allow civilians (sorry for that) to have Scanners in Automobiles. Having a Amateur Radio License allows you to have a scanner in your car. Each State is a little different though. I wont bore anyone with my experiences with Motorola or being a Police Officer for 36.5 years. Yes, I have a Amateur License. I have found it very interesting to listen to Short Wave and HAM from all over the world. Enough about me. I'll be watching your channel and bore you with a come back now and then. I did Subscribe to you tonight.

[@andrewsim9180]

This is a very helpful video. Straight forward, logical, clear, and told me what I needed to know as a novice without prompting more technical questions in my mind, than answers - which is what usually happens with KZbin SW videos. Many thanks for uploading it.

[@radiohobbyist13]

I can remember the glory days of International Shortwave Broadcasting. Sadly, it's long gone and will never return. Nonetheless, there are still plenty of interesting things to listen to if you look in the right places. Everything that you do on the internet is tracked and stored. However, there is no way to track what people are listening to on a shortwave receiver. Yes, buy a shortwave receiver while you still can.

[@RSole9999]

One really important good feature with this radio is that the power brick is a transformer type, not the switching type that will have "spurious emissions" that will interfere with weak signals.

[@rodneyhirsch2340]

Had one for years. Hasn’t changed a bit. Took a beating and kept on going. Much better than cheaper ones I had.

[@johnnorman7708]

Having some shortwave listening experience over the last 30+ years with several cheap and one $150.00 price range Eton E5 radio, I presume the model profiled here would be a very decent home "table top" unit. The multiplicity of frequency options should make for a very reasonable portal for information in an " information blackout" scenario. Being able to copy high frequency SSB HAM traffic over great distances is very very good. No matter what or where something is happening, someone will be talking about it. Good video review and great suggestion for the not tuned into radio folks that were wondering about "things".

[@baneverything5580]

I bought an Eton Elite Executive, Tecsun PL-660, and Tecsun PL-330 for about 300 bucks total. They all have external antenna ports, are very portable, and you can use simple USB powered NiMH chargers with solar panels to keep them running. The PL-330 can be directly USB charged and can also be set for use with external antennas on the AM broadcast band. Plus with three receivers I have redundancy.

[@DadBradTo5]

I took a $35 gamble (as it didn't have a power supply so as to test it), and scored the Grundig version of this from my favorite second-hand store. Brought it home, attached the proper AC/DC adapter to it, and it powered up! - - Some of the controls were on the "scratchy" side, and not consistent in their performance, but less than 45 minutes later, and with some electronic components spray cleaner, the controls were back to operating perfectly! I still need to string a super-long antenna up in my attic so as to test its full capabilities, but so far, the performance has been more than satisfactory! The one feature (so far) that I wished it had that it doesn't, is the ability to set the clock in regular "civilian" (AM/PM) time, vs the mandated 24hr (military) time. Great find, and I can't help but wonder about the "Why's" of the person who gave this gem away!! Btw, can't believe that you're not happy with many of President Biden's appointments and nominees for Government positions! Being a person who has had an interest in aviation for over 50 years, I was just "thrilled" that he nominated someone to head the FAA (Federal Aviation Administration) that was 100% "qualified"; though he had ZERO, ZERO, ZERO, aviation experience, having not so much as spent 30 minutes behind the controls of a Piper Cub (and probably hasn't a clue as to what Microsoft Flight Simulator is!), BUT he is 100% "WOKE", and therefore would meet all of the "stringent" vetting requirements that this administration has become so (IN) famous for!! (He also has an equally qualified "expert" on national transportation issues, as witnessed by the recent cataclysmic train derailment in Ohio!!!)

Back in the mid- to late-1990s, I had a long wire antenna hooked up to a SW radio from Radio Shack. I used to listen to the BBC World Service in the evenings, along with some German broadcasters.

Myself I have a Tecsun H-501x. My first love was the Zenith Transoceanonic 7000. There is a potential problem I see is that the shortwave/Ham users/broadcasters are required to have an FCC license. If they severely restrict or even shut down the internet to control the spread of news and information. Then, they will undoubtedly go through the database of licensed operators and shut them down, and seize their equipment...

[@jamesr5564]

Great Video, love the shirts. I have a couple of small shortwave radios and after researching, it was my understanding that shortwave in and of itself was diminishing. This radio will be best for listening to the Ham frequencies as I am sure, in a SHTF scenario, there will be a lot of chatter ...

LOL, this guy is one of the funniest YT channels I watch. His dry sense of humor all while being very informational is one of a kind. Thank you Mr. Rubicon, you're awesome my friend.

I am, in fact, a radio dork and I require more toys to fill that hole in my soul. Thank you for noticing. 😢

I cannot tell you how much I so agree with your outlook of our quote unquote administration And unfortunate situation of our state of affairs here in the United States of America. OUR beautiful REPUBLIC, being RUINED And I used to have a CB radio here somewhere and when stashing away my old school Radiation detector I noticed that my little CB radio has grown legs so I am so glad for any information I can get from you thank you I am also no expert at all So thank you

[@damiengirvan5020]

Why do the old CB's look so good to me.....

[@carlhansen8672]

After subbing your channel I've discovered your videos are not only very informative but I love your humor.

Excellent video. Mine is the Tecsun S-2000. It's the same radio as the Eton Elite 750. My radio was made for the European market. They are excellent receivers. My S-2000 came powered by these 3 Power Sources: 4D Alkaline Batteries 220V AC Power (AC power cord included for Asia market) It's hard wired into the radio and it will NOT work in a 120 volt U S outlet. 6V DC Jack (DC adaptor included for Europe market) (Mine was missing the 6 volt adapter. Had to purchase separately)
