About

Welcome to Radio DX Log! My name is Jerry Strawman. I am located in Des Moines Iowa, 575 km west of Chicago. I began my journey through the fascinating world of radio monitoring in 1962, after receiving a new Hallicrafters S-120 shortwave receiver as a gift. After 45 years, I still find the excitement of receiving signals from distant lands to be as great as ever. There is something interesting to be heard each day. This blog is intended to present details of my radio monitoring activities, recent communications news, and relevant information about radio monitoring equipment. I am glad you located this blog. Please return often. Leave a comment if you are so inclined. Good listening!
