I haven't been able to receive much except Radio Moscow. What I'd like to do is be able to listen to Israel Radio. Can anyone suggest any books I could read about shortwave? Does anyone know the frequencies and times of Israel Radio and or the BBC World Service? The radio is made by Reader's Digest and all I have is the antenna they provide. I assume that an External antenna would improve reception. There is a jack for one. I live in an apartment so an indoor antenna would be preferable. Can anyone suggest what I should use for such an antenna?
