Hi to all SWLing Post community. Here’s the Imaginary Stations schedule for this week’s  listening pleasure.

On Wednesday 29th July 2026, at 0200 hrs UTC on 9395 kHz on WRMI we have the return of Radio Ace. If you love all things radio related you’ll love Radio Ace and there maybe another appearance of the greatest DJ of all time (allegedly) Flash Frisbone, who knows? It’s worth tuning in and finding out.

Later, that day at 2000 hrs UTC on 3975 kHz/6160 kHz via Shortwave Gold, we bring you a repeat of last week’s special called Skybird Soul on Shortwave. Expect the best in soul and soul related tunes bounced off the ionosphere on a Wednesday night from DJ Frederick and One Deck Pete.

While on Saturday 1st August at 1100 hrs UTC on 6160 kHz and then again on Sunday 2nd August at 1300 hrs UTC on 6160 kHz and 2000 hrs UTC on 3975 kHz/6160 kHz, we have the debut of WSUN. This is a show all about the power of the Sun, that orangey/red thing that is located at the centre of our solar system. It’s going to be one hot, hot show with tunes about solar power, sundials, suntan lotion and anything that is related to that big ball of hot plasma. Tune in and enjoy the sound of the Sun!

An antidote to the heatwave

Hi to all SWLing Post community. Here’s what Imaginary Stations will be bringing to the shortwaves this week.

On Wednesday 15th July 2026, at 0200 hrs UTC on 9395 kHz on WRMI we have WHFM – Herman’s Radio and Record Room. This is another show in a series of programmes by DJ Frederick Moe in memory of his father Herman (1919-2001) and features mid-century sounds including country, jazz, folk and easy listening.

Later, that day at 2000 hrs UTC on 3975 kHz/6160 kHz via Shortwave Gold, we bring you the repeat of Skybird Jams from last week. The show is entitled “Music to increase your attention span” with DJ Frederick and mixes from Justin Patrick Moore and One Deck Pete. In other words, they’ll be extended tunes (we’re talking over 7 minutes here) and ‘jam bands’ on your shortwave dial on a Wednesday evening. Tune in and enjoy the sound of even more Skybird Jams.

While on Saturday 18th July at 1100 hrs UTC on 6160 kHz and then again on Sunday 19th July at 1300 hrs UTC on 6160 kHz and 2000 hrs UTC on 3975 kHz/6160 kHz, we have another episode of the show called Wave. This show is an antidote to the other wave we’re experiencing here at the the moment (the heatwave!) so expect chilled out tunes, sounds from the shade, cool breeze classics and stone cold anthems! Tune in and let the radio lower the temperature a good few degrees at your location.

There’s something in the (w)air

Leave a reply

Hi to all the SWLing Post community. Here’s news of what Imaginary Stations will be bringing to the airwaves this weekend.

On Saturday 20th June at 1100 hrs UTC on 6160 kHz and again on Sunday 21st June at 1300 hrs UTC on 6160 kHz and 2000 hrs UTC on 3975 kHz/6160 kHz via Shortwave Gold we bring you the sound of WAIR – Always Independent Radio.

This episode is air based, so we’re talking songs about winged travel, windmills (of your mind) and possibly leaves falling off trees. We won’t be playing songs that feature words that have the “air” sound in them like chair, stair and hair but then again we may. Tune in and enjoy the sound of some breezy based shortwave radio this weekend!

And on Wednesday 24th June at 1800 UTC on 3975 kHz/6160 kHz we bring you Skybird Jams. It’s “Music to increase your attention span” with DJ Frederick, in other words extended tunes in all genres (and yes, ‘jam bands’).

Also on Wednesday 24th June 2026, at 0200 hrs UTC on 9395 kHz on WRMI we have WHFM – Herman’s Radio and Record Room. This is the fourth 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.
