Skybird Jams | The SWLing Post

Hi to all SWLing Post community. Here’s what Imaginary Stations will be bringing to the shortwaves this week.

On Wednesday 8th July 2026, at 0200 hrs UTC on 9395 kHz on WRM I we have WHFM – Herman’s Radio and Record Room. This is another show in a series of programmes by DJ Frederick Moe in memory of his father Herman (1919-2001) and features mid-century sounds including country, jazz, folk and easy listening.

Later on, that day (and repeated on July 15th) at 2000 hrs UTC on 3975 kHz/6160 kHz via Shortwave Gold, we bring you more Skybird Jams. The show is entitled “Music to increase your attention span” with DJ Frederick and mixes from Justin Patrick Moore and One Deck Pete. In other words, they’ll be extended tunes (we’re talking over 7 minutes here) and ‘jam bands’ on your shortwave dial on a Wednesday evening. Tune in and enjoy the sound of even more Skybird Jams.

While on Saturday 11th July at 1100 hrs UTC on 6160 kHz and then again on Sunday 12th July at 1300 hrs UTC on 6160 kHz and 2000 hrs UTC on 3975 kHz/6160 kHz, we have the second episode of the show called Wave. Think summer, think BBQ’s, think stripey deck chairs and all things sunny! And think of the ionosphere enjoying the summer too.
