That all depends on how into it u want to get. If your serious about it then u will want a good table top receiver. The best antenna is a longwire. u can buy them or find instructions on the web to make one. Also some really good books and info on the net about broadcasts from all over the world. I have a JRC NRD345 receiver for sale. you can check it out here www.dxing.com/rx/nrd345.htm.

Keep an eye out for sales at Radio Shack on their shortwave radios. Any one of the shortwave radios the Shack has, will be very good for starting. A simple wire antenna at least 60 feet long will be great. A subscription to Popular Comunications Magazine will keep you up to date on frequencies.
