To receive better signal in Malaysia, it is highly recommended to use high quality shortwave radio receiver such as TECSUN, Sangean and Sony. In addition, to avoid interference of statics, it is better to reach away from electric appliances which led high radiation exposure, cause interference to shortwave radio listening. 

Shortwave radio listening is not same as FM radio because it is subjective radio receiving signal which is variable, depends on the propagation and geographical condition.
