KMTS Summer Test Transmission August 1, 2021
Many thanks to SWLing Post contributor, Fastburstradio23, who shares the following announcement:
Beaming to you from the transmitter’s location, forget summer vacation, it’s time for summer school. Get your pencils sharpened and thinking caps on for the KMTS Summer Test (transmission)! Numbers, poetry, the science of strange tones, music and mountaineering are all part of the curriculum.
And if you are one of those cats who was too hip for school the first time around, we understand. We’ve been there! When you use one of our proprietary quantum radios passing is as easy and pleasant as a breeze blown in from a deserted tropical island. All the answers tp all the questions are right in some reality or timeline!
And after you’ve peaked out with us at the crown of KMTS, you can join us for a Mai Tai at the Tiki bar on top of the mountain as we go over the summer test results.
Thanks for the tip, Fastburstradio23!
As a bonus, I was also sent this video of KMRT’s broadcast from February 2021:
All Tribes Radio: A mission of peace and music via shortwave
Many thanks to SWLing Post contributor, Ken, who shares the following announcement about All Tribes Radio:
ALL TRIBES RADIO
ONE PLANET, ONE PEOPLE…. This is ALL TRIBES RADIO and RADIO TODAS LAS TRIBUS, Nosara, Costa Rica
Broadcasting across the globe on shortwave radio, as well as streaming on the internet, All Tribes Radio (ATR) promotes world peace with an eclectic mix of culturally-diverse music, multi-lingual spoken word, and vintage programming from the golden age of radio. We provide a forum for independent artists who have licensed their works through Creative Commons, in addition to providing open-source, public domain, copyleft, and otherwise copyright-free content.
ATR was founded in 2008 by Canadian broadcaster, activist, and musician Ken Dunn (a.k.a. Don Kenet). With studios in Nosara, Costa Rica, Canada, and the U.S., ATR’s signal was transmitted via an internet server in Tampa, Florida. For over two years, the station broadcast an audio stream 24/7 on the internet to an average 6,000 listeners per month in over 120 countries on all continents. Streaming was discontinued in 2011 in favour of podcasting. A total of 68 one-hour podcasts were subsequently produced for iTunes and completed in 2012.

KSKO 89.5 McGrath, Alaska LIVE Request Show On WRMI Shortwave THIS WEEK!
Join me, Paul Walker, on WRMI Shortwave for “The LIVE Friday Night Request Show Dance Party Thingy” being relayed from NPR/community radio station KSKO 89.5 McGrath, Alaska.
It’ll take place Saturday July 10th 0300-0500UTC on 7780kHz to the east coast US and Western Europe, 7730kHz to the west coast US, Canada along with Hawaii, and the South Pacific (NZ, Aus, etc) and 4980kHz to the Caribbean and South America.
I’ll be taking phone calls with requests with a number given out during the show as it’s truly
LIVE. No station money was spent for this, It’s coming out of my pocket just to have something different up on shortwave for a few hours.
The music during the show could be ANYTHING from any genre and any year. It’s a combination of what *I* want to hear and what listeners request. I’ve had Judas Priest, Garth Brooks and Weird Al Yankovic back to back to back during the Friday night show before because they were all request in that order by 3 different listeners.
A note: 5850kHz/7570kHz is beamed towards Vancouver, 7330kHZ is beamed towards the US/Mexico border according to Jeff white which affords 7730 better coverage of the Pacific Ocean region countries than 5850 or 7570.
