Hmmm....if you all want some news...just turn on the radio. I've been listening to ham radio operators exchange information. Check out 14.150 through 14.350 Mhz. (Decent outdoor antenna - should be able to hear up to 1000 miles away.) You'll get some first hand gossip. For those of you within 10 to 200 miles (with a good outside antenna for reception) can listen to the commercial maritime frequencies. Scan from 156.00 mhz up to 158 mhz. Also check out 161 - 162 mhz.

Don't have a radio that can pick up HF, SSB, UHF or VHF? I recommend you buy one right after you fill your pantry with food.
