It is still around , as a hobby . You would be surprised how many people enjoy working with electronics and communications . I don't know how you could say obsolete , when hams are doing things currently like talking to astronauts in orbit or communication by bouncing signals off the moon . They were using video conferencing long before the public received it . Many people still enjoy talking to people in far away lands . Heck , even the Russians and Chinese have ham operators . There are many companies from around the world producing some fine equipment . Yet there are still people capable of assembling or even making their own computer and radios from scratch .

No, not at all. Shortwave listening is a very popular hobby. You can buy ready-made or build-it-yourself shortwave radios. However, as a lifelong shortwave listener, there is, admittedly, less to listen to on shortwave today that formerly.

Shortwave radio is used for broadcasting of voice and music to shortwave listeners, and long-distance communication to ships and aircraft, or to remote areas out of reach of wired communication or other radio services. Additionally, it is used for two-way international communication by amateur radio enthusiasts for hobby, educational and emergency purposes.

AM stands for amplitude modulation (the kind used in the am broadcast band and also on the shortwave bands).The shortwave bands begin just a little higher than the top of the am broadcast band and go up to 30000 KHz. The am broadcast band is from 530 to 1700 KHz and shortwave broadcast bands begin about 2000 KHz. The programming on shortwave stations is many types such as cultural,news,science,and just about anything about the country which the station is broadcasting from.Between the shortwave broadcast bands you can also hear amateur radio operators,military,utility stations,radio beacons,pirate broadcasters,radio telephone,aircraft, radio teletype,and lots more.The higher bands (above about 9000KHz) are daytime bands because the signals there propagate around the world in the daytime and the lower bands below about 9000 KHz are nighttime bands and you listen there from about sunset to sunrise.I could go on forever but that is probably about as you want to know about it unless you have ever listened, once you have experienced shortwave listening when conditions are right, you will be hooked on a great hobby.
