In the days before the Internet, the only way to listen to international stations was by shortwave.
As the name suggests, shortwave uses shorter wavelengths.
Often the reception on shortwave radios is not as clear as with today’s online radio.
Also, shortwave stations are easier to pick up at night than in the daytime.
There are still several clubs devoted to shortwave radio.
WORDS
wavelength: the distance between two waves of energy.
reception: the receiving of the radio or television signal.
devoted: to be very enthusiastic about.
