Gave you folks some places to look for SWL stuff and totally forgot short-wave.info – oops. A really neat little site – just plug in the freq you are listening to and click on the NOW button . . .
It will take you to this page . . .
Which in this example is Radio Habana Cuba – really great music some of the time – And the neat part? It also displays a real time gray line map – just go there and look at the instruction page if you need a little help with it – great tool to have available . . .

Love this guy’s preamble to the movie – Hell it’s as good or better than the movie – How many of you folks remember seeing this in the Drive In? Go ahead and raise your hands – and just for those of you who haven’t – it’s just as bad now as it was then – LOL!

I ran across this – and of course I had to try it . . .
For what it is – it ate pretty good – I mean it’s definitely NOT Guido’s ( or his mama’s! ) Lasagna – I used a pound and a half of browned of Italian sausage and put the mozzarella on top – used beef ramen – overall – cheap / easy / good – but I admit it was a little weird to eat . . .
Now I just hope Guido don’t put no contract out on me for doing this – LMAO!
I used the rest of the ricotta cheese and heavy cream in a batch of corn bread – that. was. nasty. – not recommended – just saying . . .

If any of you folks take offense at this post – glad I could be of service!
NOT a Republican – Check / Not a MAGA deviant – Check / NOT an NRA member – Check / NOT a “White Supremacist” – Check / NOT a Trump supporter – Check . . .
So apparently normal people NOT participating in something’s someone’s mental illness is justification for doing these things. If I piss people off with this – oh boo fucking hoo – except for 4 or 5 of the mass shooters since the Texas tower incident – the social deviants have all been demo(n)crats – you know – the people that actually fucking believe that free shit exists. That something is owed to them and there not getting enough free shit – they simply can’t get it through there heads that nothing is free – they don’t just want free food – they simply want someone to be their slave and provide it to them – they don’t just want free healthcare / electricity / cellphones / insert any demand – they simply wish to enslave someone to provide it for them.
And now the newest free shit army members demand that society must “freely” join them in their mental disease . . . Fucking really? – Participating in mental illness is a mental illness . . .
I actually had something someone ask me what are MY pronouns are as they chittered on about what theirs were – I said simply my pronouns were “Fuck / You” . . .
That conversation ended abruptly – very abruptly . . .
Let me put this another way – the 4473 was changed among other ways to where you now check male / female / non-binary – every FFL that I know all state that is an automatic decline – any FFL can decline the sale of a firearm for any reason – and it can be based on something as simple as “it don’t feel right”. One of my friends – a pawnshop owner / FFL put it very straight up and simple – “If that dumb sumbitch is so fucked in the head that it don’t know what sex it is – I sure as Hell ain’t sending it out the door with a gun that can be traced back to me”.
I have to agree with him on that point . . .

Short Wave Listening is as much fun as aAM DXing – except you are hearing stuff from all over the world – My primary antenna at this point is an MLA-30+ powered off an Anker cell phone power pack battery – no switching power supply injecting noise into everything . . .
It actually works well beyond what I imagined it could do . . .
Here’s a screen shot from this morning – running an Airspy Discovery HF+ on a micro desk top Lenovo . . .
Took the antenna and switched it to the Malahit – that thing is way cool – I have 3 different antennas inbound for it – a telescoping whip – a mini-whip powered by a 9 volt transistor battery – and a donut shortwave mini loop – trying to get some portability going with it – with a decent antenna . . .
If you compare the screen shot above – with the full up SDR running on the computer – and the this pic – you realize one of the limits of the Malahit – instead of looking at a large spread with the ability to click on a signal and listen – the Malahit you are looking at a tiny slice of the band – but if you know the frequencies you want to listen to – it is way cool . . .
The other “rub” to it? You really need a stylus of some type – using it is a “fat finger” nightmare – the audio however – for its size is decent . . .
I will get you a better look at it in something resembling a review at some future point – I have several clips of “stuff” recorded of the Airspy doing it’s thing – now I can’t remember how to get them off the phone and onto the computer – too big to e-mail so I have to do it with a USB cable.
Which brings me to another point – several of my grand daughters want me to do a youtube thing with all the AM DXing and shortwave “stuff” and more than one is making noises that she would pretty much do it – I would just have to provide her with content – So . . . let me ask YOU, and YOU as well – and yes even YOU – is this “stuff” you would want to see?? A video or three a week of radio listening “stuff”?? I sent one clip through texting of WWVB @ 60kHz – and two of you twisted folks responded positively about it – and several more are like WTF?
Another couple of weeks and I will (maybe) have my radio room to the point of being able to use it – so it could happen . . . Let me know . . .
