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!

Sure, why not look into it !! Maybe things Will settle down in a few months..



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.

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


Burr, This is good to hear; I thought it was Just me !

Whenever I go ANYwhere I take my 606A along;
-Hiking in the woods & seeing what bounces down from the Ionosphere..

Sitting in a cheap motel after Diving in The Hamptons & Listening to WBCQ;

( Tasha , TimTron & A.W.W. are my favorites)

Even when I was Diving in the Carribbean, staying in a seedy motel,
( My Favorite !!) I drag my 606A & the AN-LP1 Along..

Haven't had the chance to work overseas, but if I did, I'd take
it all along..
