BBC launches satellite news channel in Myanmar after Trump silences VOA

I'm not a radio wizard, I don't know all the technical terms but with a cheap AM/FM Shortwave radio like a C. Crane knock-off with a wire antenna, you can pick up all sorts of shit, especially in the evenings.

As for my sanity? Well, it helps pass the time. We used to hunt on a ranch on the Devil's River it was 40k acres. You get back there away from everything, it can get boring, lol.

I used it during Harvey as well. It has a weather band, and, I think, an emergency band. I got it on Alibaba or Wish IDR.

Just a little AM/FM Shortwave radio like the ones C Crane makes. You can get them off Alibaba or one of those sites for under $50. They do AM, FM, NOAA Weather band plus Alert, Shortwave (2300 - 26100 kHz), VHF Aviation.

I used mine during Harvey and I keep one in my hunting bag for listening to whatever I can find in the evenings when we aren't hunting especially if we are in some far-flung place.
