Apropos of nothing, does anybody know any #shortwave frequencies with reliable English language #news? I have some gleaned from web searches but I don't know if they're useful or not because I haven't finished setting up the gear to listen yet.

There's a short-wave radio club in my area. Each member has an antenna to send and receive. The club has erected a tall repeater tower that allows world-wide reach. They pay for its maintenance by renting space to the local cable company.
The members chat with others around the world. They have an arrangement with local emergency responders to help disperse information and pass along calls for assistance during storms, power failures and other emergencies.
This is going to sound a bit weird, but it might be a good idea to purchase a shortwave radio if you haven't got one already. They're quite cheap and small, you can buy one and store it long term just in case.
Shortwave is the only way to receive news and information internationally without relying on the internet or satellite. It might be a useful fallback to receive news from the outside world if your country's media and internet are ever restricted or closed down.
If you've never used one, it's like a normal radio but the frequencies reach around the world. Every country used to have its own station.

Dear listening community, what are your thoughts about the Malahit DSP2 radio ?
And compared to Belka (DX model with of course reduced freq range).
Besides wide range and NR that is said to be great, what would you say about the product ?
(Informed already on the origin of the product, speaking tech only)
