Whistling on the shortwaves

Leave a reply

Do you enjoy whistling while you’re at work? We at Imaginary Stations do too and our next programme is the combo show called WSTL—WORK, brought to you by the powers of shortwave radio via Shortwave Gold. The show goes out on Saturday 22nd February 2025 at 1200 hrs UTC on 6160 kHz and also on Sunday 23rd February 2025 at 1000/1400 hrs UTC on 6160 kHz and at 2100 UTC on 3975 kHz.

Expect lots of whistling tunes to keep you going through those shifts at work, ones to keep the Robin in your garden amused if you have the radio on while maintaining the flower beds and songs to make you feel like the wandering whistler (if you’re tuned in whilst on a treadmill). And as we have just read, “People whistle to communicate feelings which cannot be readily expressed in words.” Tune in and receive those (shortwave) feelings.

We also have another episode of Radio Ace featuring the fantastic adventures of the ground/rule breaking DJ Flash Frisbone alongside all sorts of interesting stuff on Wednesday 26th February 2025 at 0300 UTC via WRMI. Tune in as Radio is Ace!

Also we need your help again to cover our production and transmission costs. Even if you can only spare a couple of dollars it still helps to bring our shows to the shortwaves. So please donate to paypal.me/DJFrederick. A heartfelt thanks from all at Imaginary Stations goes out to all the folks who have sent us generous donations in the past!
