Orbiting outer space via shortwave

Leave a reply

Greetings to all SWLing Post community, we are off in orbit again on those shortwaves of ours, bringing you a couple of interesting shows to hopefully pique your imagination.

The first Imaginary Stations offering is on Saturday 14th June 2025 at 1100 hrs UTC on 6160 kHz and then again on Sunday 15th June 2025 at 0900/1300 hrs UTC on 6160 kHz and at 2000 UTC on 3975 kHz and 6160 kHz (via the services of Shortwave Gold) and it’s the second episode of Starship Skybird.

Like our first episode do expect more sounds from space, tunes from across the cosmos and if all goes well, we’ll have a reknowned astronomer on hand to give us a live commentary on what they can see in the night sky from the station’s roof (subject to weather and atmospheric conditions of course). Tune in that shortwave radio and join us reaching for the stars and beyond!

On Wednesday 18th June 2025 via WRMI  at 0200 UTC we bring you some audio excitement with the Kearsarge Mountain Transmission Service, KMTS. Expect some strange and wonderful music and sounds from the radio spectrum. 

More on Starship Skybird here:

Hi all, Fastradioburst23 here letting you know about a couple of transmissions on the shortwaves this Sunday 16th July 2023. The first show will be KNTS (Kearsarge North Transmission Service) from the Imaginary stations crew beamed to Europe via the services of Shortwave Gold in Germany at 2000 utc on 6160 khz. Expect lots of shortwave and ham related sounds and a couple of instrumentals containing CW.

Then later at 2200 hrs UTC on 9395 kHz the great Shortwave Music Library returns via WRMI. DJ Frederick digs through his across the board record collection taking a few requests, pulling out some tunes and giving them an airing over the shortwaves. Sit back and relax as it’s Shortwave Music Library time again! For more information on the shows email Imaginarystations (at) gmail (dot) com

Hi all, Fastradioburst23 here letting you know about a transmission on the shortwaves from the Imaginary Stations Crew via Shortwave Gold from Germany this Sunday 9th July 2023 at 2000 utc on 6160 khz.

X-Raydio will explore audio from unusual musical formats and will feature a piece on Bone Music by Stephen Coates from The Real Tuesday Weld (who hosts a great radio show called The Bureau of Lost Culture on Soho Radio, London) and also a flexi disc mix by Shane Quentin (from the excellent The Garden of the Earthly Delights show on CRMK). Tune in your shortwave radio (or an online SDR) to X-Raydio this Sunday for something a little bit different!

Hi all, Fastradioburst23 here letting you know about some transmissions on the shortwaves over the next couple of weekends via the services of WRMI and Channel 292.

X-Raydio will explore some audio from unusual musical formats (think flexidiscs, 5″ vinyl etc.) and will feature a piece on Bone Music by Stephen Coates from The Real Tuesday Weld (who by the way hosts a great radio show called The Bureau of Lost Culture on Soho Radio, London) and also a flexi disc mix by Shane Quentin from The Garden of the Earthly Delights radio show on CRMK, Milton Keynes.

The first transmission is on Sunday 5th June 2022 at 2200 utc on 9395 kHz on WRMI to North America and then the week after to Europe via Channel 292 on Sunday 12th June 2022 at 2200 utc on 3955 kHz. They’ll be some changes between the two shows with inclusion of alternatives mixes.

So get that shortwave set set and tune into X-Raydio for something a little bit different!
