short wave radio

[96terrano]

Hello, I'm wanting to recive radio stations from other countries mainly Europe. Can anyone recommend a decent sw radio under £25. I've got internet radio on my phone but I still want a sw radio so I can listen other countries when away from WiFi or 4G

I'm guessing this is more a briggie question :lol

[jims-terrano]

Biggest question is what are you wanting to listen to? I'm assuming commercial broadcast stations from far away land. If so is there much actually transmitted these days to make it worth your while? I've not seen a commercially avaialble transistor radio with SW for a long time but you should be able to pick them up pretty cheap second hand.

[96terrano]

Yeah I'm wanting to mainly recive commercial radio from Ukraine as I'm currently learning about the country, I'm wanting to drive their with my terrano in the future.

i'm still waiting for the perfect woman:), hoping the wait will pay off as you cant rush love, tbh, the main reason i don't have on is because i don't want a woman from the UK, either polish or Ukrainian, why you ask? because, they tick all the boxes for me, 1 they are gorgeous 2 they want a proper relationship, not the stupid type that wont last, and 3, they have better traits than the uk women

i had a polish friend and she was lovely:o

i'd rather wait for a eastern european women than go through british women like diesel in a terrano lol

[stinka]

All Eastern European women want to do is scam you mate.

Anyway, At your age it is quantity not quality ! I never had a proper Gf til I was like 21 and then I changed them every few months or so :D

I'm not saying do this, but you have to try on a lot of shoes until u find the perfect fit, and even then statistically now days you won't last more than say 8 years at most

Joking apart mate, get out there and get amongst them

I know several lads that have been done over the years. Thai, Russian and plenty of Eastern European girls. All they want is sticker to the uk for free benefits and NHS etc, they think the grass is greener at best, at worst they will ruin you.

No I met her at school, we are still friends, but she's taken:doh

Here's the thing that made me look into Ukrainian and polish women:D as far as I can work out, the difference between polish and Ukrainian women is like maverick and terrano:lol
