I started young, too, about 7-8 yrs old. First station was on my grandmother's SW portable was CFCF in Canada on 6005 kHz. I listened to it a lot and I was hooked. Often listened to the classical music program on Deutsche Welle late at night while trying to sleep. Listening to R. Moscow made you feel like the govt was going to knock on your door at any minute. ;). Was into listening to the tropical stations in the 90m and 60m bands, loved the music. Listened to a lot of 75m AM ham stations (no BFO on the radio at the time although I eventually built one).


I then got into utility and pirate listening. Then scanner monitoring, then CB, then ham radio. All this lead to a career in electronics in one form or another.


I am now in a location where I have decent HF reception and a good antenna so I share this publicly on my KiwiSDRs. I enjoy this because there have been so many new listeners that have thanked me for getting them interested in SW listening and many have purchased their own equipment. Things have changed a lot on the air and it is too bad we didn't have today's technology back then when there was a ton of stations still on the air.
