  2. 20-meter band - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/20-meter_band

    The 20-meter or 14-MHz amateur radio band is a portion of the shortwave radio spectrum, comprising frequencies stretching from 14.000 MHz to 14.350 MHz. [1] The 20-meter band is widely considered among the best for long-distance communication , and is one of the most popular—and crowded—during contests. [2]

  4. Shortwave bands - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Shortwave_bands

    Shortwave bands are frequency allocations for use within the shortwave radio spectrum (the upper medium frequency [MF] band and all of the high frequency [HF] band). Radio waves in these frequency ranges can be used for very long distance (transcontinental) communication because they can reflect off layers of charged particles in the ionosphere and return to Earth beyond the horizon, a ...

  5. Skywave - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Skywave

    Most long-distance shortwave (high frequency) radio communication – between 3 and 30 MHz – is a result of skywave propagation. Since the early 1920s amateur radio operators (or "hams"), limited to lower transmitter power than broadcast stations, have taken advantage of skywave for long-distance (or "DX") communication.

  6. Shortwave radio - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Shortwave_radio

    Early long-distance radio telegraphy used long waves, below 300 kilohertz (kHz) / above 1000 m. The drawbacks to this system included a very limited spectrum available for long-distance communication, and the very expensive transmitters, receivers and gigantic antennas. Long waves are also difficult to beam directionally, resulting in a major ...

  7. High frequency - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/High_frequency

    An amateur radio station incorporating two HF transceivers. A typical Yagi antenna used by a Canadian radio amateur for long distance communication Boeing 707 used a HF antenna mounted on top of the tail fin [8] The main uses of the high frequency spectrum are: Military and governmental communication systems; Aviation air-to-ground communications

  8. Shortwave listening - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Shortwave_listening

    The practice of long-distance radio listening began in the 1920s when shortwave broadcasters were first established in the US and Europe. Audiences discovered that international programming was available on the shortwave bands of many consumer radio receivers, and a number of magazines and listener clubs catering to the practice arose as a result.

  9. Low frequency - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Low_frequency

    Low frequency (LF) is the ITU designation [1] [2] for radio frequencies (RF) in the range of 30–300 kHz. Since its wavelengths range from 10–1 km, respectively, it is also known as the kilometre band or kilometre waves. LF radio waves exhibit low signal attenuation, making them suitable for long
