This practical handbook is a must for the large number of shortwave listeners who travel frequently. It's also a useful guide to anyone interested in hearing shortwave broadcasts while travelling anywhere in the world. Author Andrew Yoder includes a wealth of valuable information that shortwave enthusiasts can use immediately to increase their listening pleasure while on the road. After providing helpful descriptions of the different types of mobile shortwave radios, Yoder explains how to build and install effective portable shortwave antennas. Several complete projects are included to demonstrate how quick and easy it is to construct these makeshift antennas. The remainder of the book consists of detailed listings of the best frequencies and times to listen to shortwave radio stations in Africa, Asia, Europe, North America, South America, and Oceania. Especially valuable to travellers are the two appendices: a UTC time chart and a chart of voltages and frequencies for wall outlets around the world.
