Title: SW Radio on Young Sheldon Post by: WA2SQQ on May 20, 2019, 11:00:36 AM My wife was watching the CBS show "Young Sheldon" which presumably takes places in the 70's or 80's. Sheldon was using a Capehart shortwave receiver with what appears to be a magnetic loop antenna. Looks like the directors were not period accurate in their choice of antennas!
