Cheap SWL Antennas – Listening to Shortwave Radio With Scrap Wire


Shortwave listening is alive and well. From decoding digital tones, listening to broadcast stations or amateur transmissions – all can be a lot of fun. I have made a number of different dedicated receive antennas but these are the very simple versions I recommend that cost very littloe (even free with scrap wire) and can be built from scrap.
