Sunny Jim’s Trance Journey: March 2026 Program Schedule

Once again it’s time for another SJTJ programme!

Same old formula – a mix of (mostly) current melodic electronic based music, with at least one song you’ll likely recognise from 30 years ago & one new song from an extremely well known artist we’ve all known for over 50 years!

As always – on shortwave thanks to our wonderful SW relay partners!

Also available online – crackle free – at – www.sjtjradio.com

Happy listening!

Sunny Jim’s Trance Journey: February 2026 Program Schedule

February programme now out!! 60 minutes of music you’ve likely never heard before (except for one) and – contrary to some popular belief – proof that they do make music as good as they used to, and, you can hear the words…!! (Yes I know… again I’m sticking my head above the parapet to be shot down…!!)

Programme schedule attached (above) – why not tune in & make contact for one of our eQSL cards, and then listen online at www.sjtjradio.com to our Mixcloud player. It’s a bit like tuning in to a fading MW signal ‘from a point at sea’ & then buying the album – and hearing so much more!! eQSLs issued for all types of listening in…

Happy DXing / Happy Listening !!
