Aaron- There will always be something to hear in the frequencies between 3 and 30 mc. But will there be SWL broadcast? I believe there will be something, not as much as there is today, and defiantly not as much as in the 50's and 60's. But there will be something.
Try other bands and services, such as ham radio, aircraft, military, spy number stations. The list will be endless. If you haven't already thought of it, try for all the time tick stations of the world. Not just WWV or WWVH. The Soviets have a several stations on, Japan, and even South Africa. And as worse case, get your ham license. There are a lot of us 'nuts' from all over the world that do that. I had my ticket for 35 years, and it's been great fun.
