BUYING GUIDE
Whether you’re an amateur radio enthusiast, a survivalist, or someone who enjoys tinkering with communication devices, a shortwave radio is an intriguing piece of gear. Unlike standard FM/AM radios, shortwave radios allow you to receive international broadcasts, pick up emergency signals, and even tune into ham radio. The appeal of shortwave radios lies in their ability to pick up a wide range of frequencies from around the world. Here’s what to consider when looking for the best shortwave radio for your needs:
1. Frequency Range:
Shortwave radios vary in the frequency range they can pick up. Some will offer full shortwave bands, while others may limit to certain segments. Ensure the model you choose has a wide enough frequency range to pick up the signals you’re interested in.
2. Sensitivity:
Sensitivity is the radio’s ability to pick up weak signals. The more sensitive the radio, the better its ability to pick up distant or low-power signals. This is particularly important if you plan to listen to international broadcasts.
3. Selectivity:
This refers to the radio’s ability to separate closely spaced signals. In a crowded band, good selectivity allows you to isolate individual signals more easily.
4. Tuning Options:
Basic radios may have manual tuning knobs, while advanced models may offer digital readouts, direct frequency input, and even preset station options. Choose based on your comfort level and needs.
5. Antenna:
Some shortwave radios come with built-in antennas, while others require an external one. In general, an external antenna will give better performance, especially for weak or distant signals.
6. Power Options:
Look for a model that offers multiple power options like batteries, AC, and even hand-crank or solar for emergencies.
7. Portability:
If you plan to take the radio on-the-go, consider its size and weight. Some models are small enough to fit in a pocket, while others might be better suited for a desk or tabletop.
8. Build Quality:
Choose a shortwave radio made of high-quality materials that can withstand wear and tear, especially if you plan on taking it outdoors or using it frequently.
9. Display:
Some radios come with backlit displays, which can be very useful in low-light conditions. Make sure the display is easy to read and offers all the information you need.
10. Advanced Features:
Features like Single Side Band (SSB) reception, sync detection, and data output ports can be beneficial for more advanced users. If you are just starting out, these might not be necessary.
11. Price and Warranty:
You can find shortwave radios that range from inexpensive to very costly. Have a budget in mind and look for models that offer the best balance of features and price. A good warranty is also a sign of a reputable product.
12. Reviews and Recommendations:
Before making a decision, read reviews and watch videos to get a feel for the radio’s performance. User reviews can offer valuable insights that specs and features cannot.
By considering these factors, you’ll be well on your way to finding a shortwave radio that meets your needs, whether you’re tuning in for news, weather, or the sheer joy of discovering signals from around the globe.
