All you need is a shortwave radio with SSB capability.  Just tune in the active frequencies and hope to hear something.  A good antenna is a must, preferable something outside.  A long piece of wire will work well.  You location and time of day will also determine if you can receive certain stations.  There's lists of the active HF freqs on the web if you do some quick searching.  I can answer specific questions if needed too.
