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.

More shortwave supper clubs and less stress

Good day SWLing Post lounge community, Fastradioburst23 here passing on a message about our third episode of the Imaginary Lounge this Sunday 7th May 2023 at 2200 UTC on 9395 kHz via the services of WRMI.

We urge you again to leave the stressful world out there behind and recharge your SWLing AA/LR6 batteries. Loosen the longwire antenna a little, get that favourite silk dressing gown on and swan about with a martini glass in your hand to some fine chilled exotica and relaxing tunes and become at one with the ionosphere. As Sneaky Pete says “Enjoy”.
