This is 5th in a series of videos that describe interesting shortwave radio frequencies and signals

These two bands, 120 meters and 105 meters span about 2300 to 3200 khz. I combined both since there really isn't a lot to listen to in either band - plus, lower bands are notoriously difficult to receive well since the beset propagation is in the evening and nighttime. Still there are some interesting signals from shortwave broadcasts on the 120 meter band to a a variety of numbers, military and unusual digital signals. Also, the 105 meter band is full of Russian freebanders in the evenings in Europe (around 20:00 UTC).
