So, you now have a shortwave radio, and you are starting to tune in foreign broadcast stations, amateur radio operators and other strange sounding signals!
This may very well be your first steps to actually obtaining your ham ticket sometime in the not too distant future; so in the attempt to promote youth interest, and activity in Ham Radio, keep listening! You will learn something new each time you turn the rig on. You can enhance your enjoyment and learning experience of SWL'ing by registering online (for free) for your own unique Shortwave Radio Monitor's Identifier that will be perfect for QSL'ing.
You can easily obtain a 'callsign' by doing a search for:
