Downbeat, country music and a record room

Hi to all SWLing Post community. Here’s news of what Imaginary Stations will be bringing to those shortwave bands this week.

We have the fourth programme in the Downbeat on Shortwave series via Shortwave Gold, where guest DJs Jesse Yuen and One Deck Pete bring you two 15-minute downtempo mixes each over the hour-long show. Expect some ambient, dub and downtempo vibes to wind down to at the weekend. The schedule for the show is on Saturday 13th June at 1100 hrs UTC on 6160 kHz and then again on Sunday 14th June at 1300 hrs UTC on 6160 kHz and 2000 hrs UTC on 3975 kHz/6160 kHz. Listening while horizontal is an option.

On Wednesday June 17th at 2000 hrs UTC on 3975 kHz/6160 kHz we bring you the repeat of last week’s Skybird Folk & Country Radio. If you’re into both those genres you are going to love this show if you didn’t catch it last week

Also on Wednesday 17th June 2026, at 0200 hrs UTC on 9395 kHz on WRM I we have WHFM – Herman’s Radio and Record Room. This is the third in a series of programmes recorded by DJ Frederick Moe in memory of his father Herman (1919-2001) and feature mid-century sounds including country, jazz, folk and easy listening.
