Short-wave radio: broadcasts from around the world

This is a video of some of places around the world I have heard short-wave radio broadcasts from. The magic of radio, nothing is needed between the sender and the receiver. Anyone who thinks short-wave radio is dead is not listening.

If you do not own a short-wave radio receiver, or your short-wave reception is poor at your location, here are some Internet options:

"On this page you can listen to and control a short-wave receiver located at the amateur radio club ETGD at the University of Twente. In contrast to other web-controlled receivers, this receiver can be tuned by multiple users simultaneously, thanks to the use of Software-Defined Radio." (allows approximately 800 simultaneous users) http://websdr.ewi.utwente.nl:8901
