I worked in Liberia for a few months a few years ago until the war
kicked up again. I know all those people and I'm wondering if I should
look into going back!

Had my YB400 with the wind-up antenna running out the window to a tree
and it worked great. The radio was one the few thing I had to enjoy
while I was there. I also had it in Egypt whit the antenna hanging out
the fifth floor window. Shortwave radio and I go way back to The Nam
where I got the news about America from "Radio Moscow" and the BBC.
Funny, I was in Greece a few months ago and I had the YB400 with the
antenna running out the balcony door to a nail in the wall and listened
to the BBC. Watched the "World Series on CNN and watched some dirty flicks.

A lot of my like is tied to my shortwave radio.

It's doing fine. I'm listening it right now. They're talking about Liberian
President Charles Taylor and the offer by Nigeria to offer asylum.

I'm setting up my spam filters in anticipation of President Charles Taylor
trying to confidentially contact me to help him funnel 50 Million U.S.
dollars to a U.S. bank out of a Liberian bank.
