SHORTWAVE BROADCASTS
SHORTWAVE BROADCASTS
At various times the flight crew or passengers may find it desirable to
monitor a shortwave radio broadcast station from a particular area of
the world on the KHF 950/990.
Listed are radio stations from over 75 countries, many of which trans-
mit in English and a few of the other major languages of the world.
Some of these stations beam their transmissions in different direc-
tions at various times of the day. Also, not all frequencies of a particu-
lar station may be transmitting at the same time. The KHF 950/990
should be in the AM mode when receiving these stations.
These stations broadcast a variety of information including news and
weather as well as entertainment
programs. See appendix C, refer-
ence five, for a source of useful information concerning shortwave
broadcasts.
