I'd agree there's not a huge amount on AM Shortwave now, although I do occasionally enjoy an evening tuning through the 6 bandspreads on my VEF 206 and seeing what I can pull in. The only things of note (to me) around home are broadcasts from China Radio International in Beijing and some Eastern European stations, although on our occasional trips to the Welsh coast I have picked up a "Fire & Brimstone" preacher-type fella who I believe is broadcasting from Florida. (And LOTS of noise from the many offshore wind turbines, sadly)
