I have found, having started 2 days ago, that there are three ways to
search for SW broadcasts:
1. Hunting, one station at a time, on each meter band.
2. Scanning quickly through each meter band.
3. Looking at a list of broadcast times and stations for your area that
someone has put together and directly putting these frequencies in.
How do you do it?
dn:
If you know the name of the broadcaster you want, just look up their
webpage. Take China Radio International (CRI) for example, just google
with some search terms like: china, radio, international, shortwave,
english. I did this for you and got this webpage:
http://pw2.netcom.com/~jleq/cri1.htm
then by following the link on the page for english schedules, I got to
the page:
http://pw2.netcom.com/~jleq/cri1_skedfreq.htm
which gives time in UTC and frequencies.
I find this works the best for me. All I need is a list of shortwave
broadcasters (yes, you can even google for that!) and you are off with
many, many broadcasts to keep you busy indefinently!
Warmest regards,
