No, I thought about it and had a Holicrafter shortwave receiver with a forty foot antenna as a teenager, but I never got into the sending aspect of the hobby. My current Grundig has a couple shortwave bands but I keep it tuned to an FM station where they broadcast local, NPR, PRI, and BBC news and talk shows.
