The deep blue sea and trains this weekend on shortwave

Hi SWLing post community, Fastradioburst23 here letting you know about this weekend’s Imaginary Stations shows on shortwaves this Sunday 6th 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 be the debut of KSEA. It’s an ocean themed mix special so grab a waterproof jacket and a radio (with marine band on it of course) and go on a seaward journey with us.

Then later on at 2200 hrs UTC on 9395 kHz via WRMI we have CTRN for all locomotive fans. We’ll be playing all sorts of songs about stations, signals and rolling stock. Remember to leave any baggage in the guard’s van with your name and address clearly marked on the label before going to your alloted seat. We will be coming around with the buffet trolley so we need to keep the walkways clear. Please enjoy your trip and remember to take all of your belongings with you when you leave the train. Thank you!

Hi SWLing post community and all train fans out there from Fastradioburst23. The Imaginary Stations team have a train related broadcast on Sunday 18th December 2022 via WRMI on 9395 kHz at 2300 hrs UTC.

Enjoy the sound of train effects, stories of what it was like to work on the railroad many years ago and locomotive related tunes. You don’t need a ticket either, just tune into 9395 kHz!

Hi Fastradioburst23 here, apologies to all of the SWLing Post community who tuned in last week but sadly CTRN wasn’t broadcast due to a problem at the sidings. The show will now go ahead this Sunday 24th July via WRMI on 9395 kHz at 2200 utc.

There’s always a chance of delays on the line but all being good this week there will be locomotive and electric classics for all train staff, station crew and passengers to enjoy including this classic below. Thanks in advance for travelling with us! Tickets please.

Hi SWLing Post community, this is Fastradioburst23 again and just letting you know of another episode of KBIN this coming weekend via WRMI. Each week it seems the KBIN gets reloaded. Will you skip into the skip with us and see what we can recover?

It’s at 1800 EST/2022 UTC on Sunday 1st May 2022 on 9395 kHz and it’ll be another “straight out of the bargain bin” broadcast. We’ve got more recycled radio for you including KFOG and CTRN so tune in and catch yourself another great value for money transmission. Remember this is a once in a lifetime offer, never to be repeated again (until the next time)!
