A first class service with some warmth

Leave a reply

Greetings all SWLing Post community, Imaginary Stations bring you POST (The Shortwave Postal Service) through the ether this week via shortwaveradio.de on Saturday 17th January 2026 at 1200 hrs UTC. Then there’s the second post on Sunday 18th January 2026 at 1000/1400 hrs UTC on 3975 kHz and 6160 kHz and (the new time of) 2100 UTC on 3975 kHz.

We’ll be pushing the (audio) envelope and be playing songs about stamps, post masters, postmen and women, and the humble post-box in all its free-standing glory (unless it is mounted into a wall). So put the imaginary overstuffed mailbag on your shoulder and listen to some sorted and possibly redirected tunes by the power of shortwave.

And on Wednesday 21st January 2026 at 0300 UTC on 9395 kHz via WRMI we bring you WARM. It may be cold where you are now, but we at Imaginary Stations will be sitting in front of a roaring fire dreaming about the change in the seasons and that magical time when the sun comes out again and playing some tunes with warmth to cheer you up. Tune in and listen to tunes that raise the temperature.

Hi to all SWLing Post community! FastRadioBurst 23 here with news of this week’s Imaginary Stations shortwave output.

On Saturday 25th January 2025 at 1200 hrs UTC on 6160 kHz and also on Sunday 26th January 2025 at 1000/1400 hrs UTC on 6160 kHz and at 2100 UTC on 3975 kHz via Shortwave Gold we’ll be bringing you WARM 3 (which was broadcast on WRMI last week if you missed it) a continuation of tunes to heat you up during this winter period (if it is winter where you are).  So hitch up the huskies, take off your snowshoes, grab that USB powered hot water bottle and enjoy some great tunes. You can be assured there won’t be any lukewarm songs on the show, they’ll all either be hot or just below boiling.

Feeling cold or feeling run down with a cold? Well on Wednesday January 29th January 2025 at 0300 UTC via WRMI we have WARM 4 with tunes hotter than a thermal vest. Tune in and WARM up! More on our WARM shows here.

Hi to all SWLing Post community! FastRadioBurst 23 here letting you know what the Imaginary Stations crew are up to this week.

On Saturday 11th January 2025 at 1200 hrs UTC on 6160 kHz and also on Sunday 12th January 2025 at 1000/1400 hrs UTC on 6160 kHz and at 2100 UTC on 3975 kHz via Shortwave Gold we have a second episode of WARM. It’s the winter at the moment and very cold over here so we need a broadcast that’ll warm us up and cheer us up at the same time. Our broadcast will bring you more hot tunes and music to warm you up. So turn up the central heating, turn on the shortwave radio and tune into WARM 2.

On Wednesday January 15th 2025 at 0300 UTC via WRMI we have the first episode of WARM to keep out those chills. Here’s our trailer for the show.

Hi to all SWLing Post community! FastRadioBurst 23 here letting you know what audio treats the Imaginary Stations crew have in store for you next week.

On Saturday 4th January 2025 at 1200 hrs UTC on 6160 kHz and also on Sunday 5th January 2025 at 1000/1400 hrs UTC on 6160 kHz and at 2100 UTC on 3975 kHz via Shortwave Gold we have the debut of WARM. If it’s cold where you are, you will already know the benefits of the show. We’re talking records to warm the cockles of your heart, blazing tunes and even a couple of simmering cover versions to turn up the heat on the shortwave dial.

If all goes well we will also have The Baltimore Boilermen and Boilerwomen Pipe Band in the studio bringing you a rendition of “Feeling hot, hot, hot” and some central heating tips (all subject to availability of course). It’ll be a fun hour, so wrap yourself up in your favourite blanket, put on some fluffy slippers, make yourself a hot chocolate and enjoy the show.

On Wednesday January 8th 2025 at 0300 UTC via WRMI we have another episode of the wonderful Radio Ace. Tune in for an hour of something very radio related.
