In the 1950's and 1960's short wave radio was important for outback Western Australian communities with no local radio medium wave or fm radio. As a child and teenager I can remember listening on medium wave when they were opening and closing the various short wave stations - If my memory serves me well they were something like VCX6 or VCW or something very similar.

In the 1990's I lived with my family for a while in Java Indonesia, and the Javanese Language word for north was 'Lor'.
