I want to pick up short wave radio on my computer?

Question

I would like to pick up short wave radio on my computer or listen the ships harbour talking all legal how can i do this without buying a short wave radio

Answer 1

The major broadcasters have webstreams of their shortwave broadcasts online

http://www.k5kj.net/swl.htm has some links to some of them

But to actually listen and control  try:

http://www.ralabs.com/webradio/

And here are some other links to try:

All of this is legal as long as what you are listening to is legal in your country (as for instance police transmissions are illegal to overhear in some countries, but in the US almost all monitoring (short of phone calls and anything scrambled) is legal pretty much

Answer 2

You can try entering "shortwave rebroadcasts" (Without the quotes) in your favorite search engine. But if memory serves correctly from my old third-class license studying, it's illegal to rebroadcast radio signals, but give it a try - that may have changed with the internet.
