 Shortwave - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Short wavelengths are associated with high frequencies because there is an inverse relationship between frequency and wavelength.
Shortwave frequencies are capable of reaching the other side of the planet because they can be refracted by the ionosphere.
CW: Continuous/Carrier wave, which is used for Morse code communications.

The short wave instability on corotating vortex filaments is investigated.
It is shown that the short wave instability always occurs on corotating vortex filaments of fixed core structure.
Moreover, when the interfilament distance is smaller than or comparable to the core size, vortex filaments produce short wave unstable modes which lead to wild stretching and folding; when vortex filaments are far apart from each other, unstable modes are bounded by a fraction of the core size and the vortex stretching remains bounded.

 Digital Signals FAQ V5.3   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-17)
Short SWED-ARQ sounds and is exactly like Sitor-A. Idling TWINPLEX is the same as Sitor-A. To identify these signals by ear may be impossible depending on which mode they are currently in.
Idle chirps are short, about.3s in duration with about.8s between chirps.
This is a ground wave only system, so a signal received via HF will be nearly impossible to decode because the ionosphere messes up the phase.

 Short Wave Listening
While I was a student at the University of St. Andrews I was an enthusiastic short wave listener.
Guglielmo Marconi in 1921 had discovered that short waves could be received thousands of miles away from transmitters of modest power.
I have continued to be a short wave listener from time to time ever since.

 Short-Wave and Wave Group Scattering by Submerged Porous Plate   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-17)
Consequently, in this study the plate is analyzed in a global perspective, [i.e., considering its response to obliquely incident short waves (both regular and irregular) and wave groups (with the consequent generation of free and locked long waves)].
The propagation of a wave group past a horizontal porous plate is studied using a multiple-scale perturbation method, and an analytical solution is presented.
The results show that the generated long waves are present on both sides of the plate and that maximum short-wave reflection is associated with maximum long-wave transmission.

 IEEE History Center - Directive Short Wave Antenna, 1924
In close proximity to the driver, but not physically connected to it is a reflector, usually more than ½ l and one or more directors (usually less than ½ l).
The E.M. wave interaction between the elements of the "beam" antenna acts to re-radiate the signal in a specific direction (i.e.
Hence the antenna is not suitable for short wave high power broadcasting transmission (but it can be used for reception.)

 Short Wave Air Cooled Products, Altronic Research
The Short Wave Loads are air cooled dummy loads designed especially for short wave transmitters that can handle ultra high power.
These 50-ohm loads are constructed with the same design techniques as the Ultra High Power Medium Wave Loads providing superior RF characteristics under power.
The Short Wave Loads have all the same features as the other air cooled loads such as interlock, thermal overload protection, screened louvered intake and output panels and roof on outdoor units with no tuning required.

 SW Radio ceases short wave broadcasts
The station said it would switch to medium wave and would broadcast for two hours every morning, between 5 - 7am Zimbabwe time, and 24-hours on its website.
Even with the downscaled medium wave transmission, SW Radio Africa which needs an estimated £100 000 monthly for its operations remains in serious need of financial salvation.
The best signal for the medium wave is received in South Africa, and the station hopes the estimated 2,5 million Zimbabwean exiles there will be able to clearly receive their programmes.

 Tigers' rally falls short; Wave turns back Tide
The Green Wave put itself in that position playing long ball against second-seeded Alabama on Saturday, hitting three home runs on its way to a 10-4 victory over the Crimson Tide at Turchin Stadium.
After Alabama fought back from a 5-0 deficit, closing to 5-4 in the seventh inning, the Green Wave put the game away with a pair of runs in the eighth inning and a pair of home runs in the ninth.
Alabama (39-22) pulled to 5-4 of the Wave on a seventh-inning solo blast by Cale Iorg.
