[IRCA] WW2 POW Shortwave Monitoring



My wife is currently researching at the National Archives for her next book,
on WW2 radio traitors.  She just emailed me a group of four letters and a
prepared card from shortwave listeners to families of POW's.  German
shortwave stations broadcast brief POW messages and apparently SWL's of the
day copied down the information and sent it on to the families.  Amateur
stations were off the air for the duration, so I imagine a lot of wartime
SWL's were hams.

I can email them to anyone who wants to have a look.
