My wife is currently researching at the National Archives for her next book, on WW2 radio traitors. She just emailed me a group of four letters and a prepared card from shortwave listeners to families of POW's. German shortwave stations broadcast brief POW messages and apparently SWL's of the day copied down the information and sent it on to the families. Amateur stations were off the air for the duration, so I imagine a lot of wartime SWL's were hams.
I can email them to anyone who wants to have a look.
