I was hooked on SWL in the fifties and sixties. First was on a 1946 RCA table model that had BC and 6-18mc on it. Then when I had saved up enough I got a Heath AR-3 and put it together. I'd listen to ARkLATex teenaged hams in the afternoon after school and then SWL Europe (mostly the BBC) at night. It was magic then and it still is even though the great and popular voices have gone silent.
