Tampafag here
Rooting around in my old stuff I found a Grundig YB-P 2000 radio.
Considering I'm about to get buttfucked by a Hurricane I figured that i'd be good to have but I'd rather listen to some International Stations that play music than the same 10 emergency broadcasts but I'm not sure how the shortwave works or what stations to look for
Think you guys can help me out?

First check 5000, 10000 and 15000 KHz, they're the standard time and frequency broadcasts from the government. If you can hear those, you can probably hear other stuff too. If not, try to get up higher or near a window.
Frequencies under 10 MHz tend to come in better at night, and over 10 MHz are better in the daytime. Checking those standard broadcasts I mentioned above can give you an idea of what's "open" at any given time.

What is to know? Only thing besides scanning channels is different times of the day different locations are easier to hear because of solar effects on the ionosphere.
Tampa is probably still safe
it's fine
