Hi All!

I'm a diehard Chicago Cubs fan and now I'm stuck. Months ago I scheduled a
fishing/camping trip for the Smokey mountains that will start this week.
I'll be camping in a mountain meadow and the only think I'll be able to pick
up is shortwave broadcasts.

Does anyone know of an English language station that will be broadcasting
the World Series? I have a 30 year old shortwave radio and lots of room to
string up an antenna?

Thanks a bunch!

I forget, which station are the Cubs on in Chicago? (WGN if I recall
properly?)

You should be able to pick up the night games directly from Chicago,
albeit with some fading.

I'd be pretty much certain you'll find the day games on a nearby AM (or
even FM) station. Unfortunately a search on the MLB site only returns
their own webcast.

I'm sure the Armed Forces Radio Network will carry the World Series. These
transmissions are all in SSB:

I was listening last night to 7.507 with a good signal.
