    Is there anyone still monitoring this echo?

    I was an SWLer long ago, and now am retired and getting more

    Same here and I am still lurking. But in my case I no longer have any
    Ham or Shortwave units set up so have nothing to post.

    My shortwave reciever is an old Kenwood R-1000 and the Ham units are an
    Kenwood TS-440 and a Kenwood TS-50

    I'm reading it, but I don't really do SWLing. However, I run, or check
    into a Packet, Echolink, D-Star, or D-Rats Ham Radio Net on a nightly DS>basis. In fact, I think I'm up to 18 for the week now...plus, I DS>administer ham radio license exam sessions twice a month in ham radio.

    I wonder if I need something else to do in the hobby?? (hi hi).

    Seriously, I used to have a Bearcat 210 XL Scanner long ago, but it's
    long gone. The prices for these items nowadays are ridiculous...and many DS>of the entities are now going from analog to digital communications, DS>which increases the price of the scanners.

    I still have my RadioShack Pro-90 Handheld. The battery needs replacing
    though.
    Also have a RadioShack Pro 2046 desktop scanner and a Uniden BC-895XLT
    but have not turned them on in Years
