The SW indicates that it is on the Swaziland setting.

From the thumbnail picture I thought for some reason that it was a Motorola StarTac. Remember those things?

And here I thought the Commodore 64 was the coolest thing ever, how wrong I was :)

YES! And I can remember the early car phones that took up half the boot/trunk and weighed the same as an adult.

My little Kaito emergency radio can pick up short wave. I swear I heard a numbers station on it the other day.

I got a shortwave radio a few weeks ago, and it's awesome! I can tune stations from all Latin America (I live in southern Brazil), USA, some from Europe, some from Africa, Japan, China, Korea, Russia and so on. I bought a cheap Tecsun PL310-ET, but it's a very capable little radio.

I live in a small town, without much radio noise (wifi signal, high tension electrical lines), so it's incredible how such small equipment can get signals from all over the world.

What a time to be alive!

While I was turning the dial on my SW radio I got on the mysterious chinese music station. It's a bit hard to find information about this radio, but it's apparently very alike the American, Cuban and Russian numbers stations. This chinese station plays a traditional chinese folk song in eternal loop. Some say this music is rarely interrupted, to broadcast numbers.
