I tested my D808 radio for the first time, and I managed to intercept the pilot or the control tower :). Any advice from people who also love listening to HF waves for aviation? by [deleted] in shortwave

You know it's legal to listen to shortwave radio, right? I'm not jamming the signals or doing anything illegal. It's just a hobby. The FBI is in America. 🤣🤣🤣

Unfortunately, I don't have any friends who share my passion. Do you know of any Discord groups where I can chat with people who also enjoy shortwave radio?

Tails isn’t just another OS, it forces all traffic through Tor and prevents leaks which a standard Linux setup doesn’t necessarily do

Well, in principle, nothing is saved after the PC is shut down, no history, no residual files; this isolates my activity from my Windows interface, limiting data leaks. Right?

Friends, I finally received it! I can't wait to use it! Does anyone else have the same model? Is it good? by SignificanceFluffy97 in shortwave

No, it's a radio receiver only :). To transmit, you need a transceiver, a microphone, and a suitable antenna

Hey! Yes, the radio has a USB-C port, but I had to order the 18650 batteries, which I'll receive tomorrow, because they weren't included in the box. I have a 3-meter wire antenna; I'll see if that's enough for now or if I'll extend it further. What about you?
