I'll be at sea for it. The good news is that we have an HF rig onboard.

<snip>. Cheaper than the $800+ new, but I may find a used rig at the Louisville Hafest. That's not til September though . . .
Maybe a generation back for $275-$350.  Try QRZ.com, eHam.net, etc.

Hi;

     RASTUS,  I did HF work when in the Military and decided that I did not need to pursue it when I got my ticket. I use to monitor  14.313  and adjorning freq's - that made up my mind.

     I am more interested in what is going on within 1-200 miles of the QTH that what Fritz, Sean, Pablo or Mohammed has to say !

Yes but I find it cool talk with buddies hundreds miles away in the morning...not so much with the UHF/VHF.

Did you ever get to use an elephant cage?  Those things really look imposing.

And for neophytes like me (who are interested, but not sure) you can listen to some Ham channels online.

Yes and no. Some of the short range repeaters can be found at http://www.radioreference.com/ but I am not aware of the HF frequencies being available on line as they are variable and not set up as "channels". Hope this helps.

Yes.... I was speaking in general terms, and not this enterprise specifically, and should have mentioned that.
Thanks.

Actually, yes you can listen onlne. There are several websites dedicated to shortwave and HF listening. You can even tune specific radios from your pc.
Don't remember the names of the websites, but I'm sure a quick search will find them.
