    A short wave convertor converts the shortwave broadcasts to a   
    frequency within the medium wave radio bands, so you can listen to SW   
    broadcasts on a medium wave AM radio, such as an ordinary AM/FM   
    table radio. They used to be common, but I never bothered with   
    one. Now that I am retired I am interested in getting back into   
    SWL and would like to have a converter for one of the nice table   
    radios I have.
