I have explored this one a few times over the last few months (it may or may not work HF, I haven't got that far yet).

Those internet receivers seem to work pretty well.  Takes a minute to get a hang of it.

I'm going to add a 40M/80M antenna outside this year.  I've run a 20M/15M for the last couple of years outside (I break covenants on antennas for the weekend...my others are inside the attic).  Both are fed with ladder line I run in to the house and then go with a 1:1 balun to bring in coax to the switch on the antenna tuner.  If I have time a nested Moxon 10M, 15M and 20M or maybe just a 3 element Moxon...if I can get another fishing pole and build a hub.

And for those that are looking for discount radios, you can find new and used here at good prices.

As I follow this I remember my youth and all the hobbyists in our neighborhood.  I had lost the bug, but now you guys are making me think of another hole to hide my money in.

OK.  Last week I added 2 for a total of 87 currently set up.  I suspect we'll but 100 in the next couple of weeks.   May be another update tonight.

Got the cheapie MFJ 20M di-pole.  Got to tune it, rent the lift, mount it on top the tower and run the wires.  Maybe just, maybe I can get that done by the MS weekend.

Need a list of DRTV calls.
