A flying mystery on shortwave

Greetings all SWLing Post community, here’s what Imaginary Stations crew are putting out into the shortwaves next week. We’ve another “Guess what the theme is” with the Mystery Mix Radio show (WMMR) via shortwaveradio.de on Saturday 29th November 2025 at 1200 hrs UTC and then again on Sunday 30th November 2025 at 1000/1400 hrs UTC on 3975 kHz and 6160 kHz and 2200 on 3975 kHz.

As usual, it’s a show of an unknown theme that you the listener, will have to guess what it is. There’ll be a special e-QSL for the lucky winner, and no, we will not give any clues away (or is that a double bluff and we have given away a vital clue?) Tune in and have some fun guessing on shortwave.

On Wednesday 3rd December 2025 at 0300 UTC on 9395 kHz via WRMI we bring you WFCR, the one and only Flying Carpet Radio. The show is an exotic journey through the skies on a flying carpet made from an assortment of carpet tiles and bits of (thrown out for the binman), old floor matting. It may not look like the best looking travelling device, but it doesn’t half work. So expect all sorts of exotic and worldly sounds, underlaid with the warmest vibes as ever.

Good day all SWLing Post readers, FastRadioBurst 23 here letting you know what the Imaginary Stations crew will be bringing to the airways this coming week.

We’ve another WMMR, Mystery Mix Radio show on Saturday December 7th 2024 at 1200 hrs UTC on 6160 kHz and repeated on Sunday December 8th 2024 at 1000/1400 hrs UTC on 6160 kHz and also at 2100 UTC on 3975 kHz via the services of Shortwave Gold.

So tune in with your pen and pad and a magnifying glass at the ready in full Sherlock Holmes attire and see if you can guess this week’s theme.

Then on Wednesday December 11th 2024 at 0300 UTC via WRMI we have the return of CBRG. Welcome to the sound of Seeburg, AKA the might mellow. Here’s a little taster for you:

Shortwave times, they are a-changin’

Hi all of the SWLing Post Community, FastRadioBurst 23 bringing you news of this week’s Imaginary Stations broadcasts. On Sunday 1st October 2023 at 2000 hrs UTC on 3975 & 6160 kHz we have The Imaginary Stations Polka Party beamed to Europe via Shortwave Gold. Get the tankard out and get ready for one exciting polka party!

From this weekend the times they are a changing for Imaginary Stations on WRMI. No, you don’t need to set your clocks to fall backwards just yet, but depending on where you have your listening post, you might want to grab some tea and biscuits for some later night listening.

The show will now go out on 0200 UTC Mondays on 9395 kHz and then repeated at 0300 UTC on 9455 kHz. That is four hours later than the time you all have become accustomed to, so translated into Eastern Time we will now be on at 10 pm Sunday evening. This is good news for all the night owls out there, and also good news for those on the West Coast where the show will air at 7 pm Sunday Evening.

The first show for the new times is the debut of WMMR – Mystery Mix Radio where DJ Frederick will be putting together a mix up show from his eclectic record collection, so expect an interesting selection.
