Talking w/ friends about shortwave recently and was reminded as a 1980s kid I was able to RECEIVE PICTURES FROM SPACE SATELLITES on my Apple ][ w/ a simple circuit & assembly code from a magazine. I found it! BYTE June 84: https://www.worldradiohistory.com/Archive-Byte/80s/Byte-1984-06.pdf On perfboard into joystick port! #appleii

We used to make similar interfaces for xt PC's onboard fishing vessels. They were hooked up to the audio output of their MF/HF radio's to get the weather forecast.
