Good day SWLing post readers! Fastradioburst23 here to let you know about this Sunday’s Imaginary Station episode at 2200 hrs UTC on 9395 kHz on the 18th June 2023 via WRMI. We’ll be broadcasting a special programme live from the Skybird mobile studio van parked up in a car park in the hippy haven of Woodstock.

So please don your best 1970’s long afghan coat, grab something to drink if there is anything still left in the communal fridge and play your imaginary recorder or shake a home made tambourine along to the far out sounds of WHPY. Prepare to be transported back in time in a hippie/hippy wagon of your choice.
