Any you guys some good shortwave freqs that might be prepper related, news, or even tin foil hat related? How about a good website with listings?

Thanks for the stuff. I will store that info. I'm just looking for news type stuff, prepper...survivalist stuff. I guess I am looking for "non main stream media" I figure it will be handy for future reference

OK thanks on the alex jones info. Is it me or is alot of the info on the net inaccurate? I find listings for stations completely inaccurate or atleast outdated. My hope is to put together a commo book for my LP. Sure nothing beats tuning around the band, but it's nice to have a reference.

I've been listening since about 1998.  I have never found a good sturdy place to go for an accurate station listing

Just like Ham Radio, the bands are always at the mercy of the Sun/Conditions, therefore broadcast I've heard one night, can't be found the next-or even the next month.

And like Ham Radio it seems like working to tune is just as big a part of working a fellow station.  there is a book printed each year, a SWL guide, that goes for about $30...I've never been able to convince myself to buy it.

The pirates hang out on 6.925 and 6.955 (usually USB, sometimes AM, rarely FM!) and they'll talk about anything and everything.

perfect example of this, is if you go on the GCN website they don't even show that frequency you are using...how did you find him?

[edit] I'm a idiot! its right on his website....still, seems to be a lot of conflicting info out there, oh well shortwave supplements my PTT side of the hobby.
