Hi to all our radio friends in SWLing Post land, Fastradioburst23 here hoping to not ruffle any feathers with news about Imaginary Stations on the radio this Sunday 13th August 2023. The first show will be beamed to Europe via the services of Shortwave Gold in Germany at 2000 utc on 6160 khz and will feature our feathered friends with WREN. We will bring you some bird related classics and birdsong. Binoculars and a note-pad are mandatory for this broadcast.

Then later at 2200 hrs UTC on 9395 kHz  via WRMI we have a back to school special edition of KMRT. This show is part of the ongoing “Supermarkets on Shortwave” events and we will do our best to have as many centre aisle and Blue Light specials as we possibly can. The broadcast will also feature a Supermarket Security Guard Choir and the National Greengrocer’s Association with a fruit juggling exhibition (*subject to availability). Tune in for a “once in a lifetime” experience. For more information on the shows please email [email protected] and check out our old shows here.
