Mysteries about the weather

A big hello to all the SWLing community. Imaginary Stations have a couple of great programmes going out on air this week. The first is on Saturday 29th March 2025 at 1100 hrs UTC on 6160 kHz and also on Sunday 30th March 2025 at 0900/1300 hrs UTC on 6160 kHz and at 2000 UTC on 3975 kHz and 6160 kHz. It’s WMMR – Mystery Mix Radio and it’s one of those “Guess what the theme is?’ specials. Once the show’s over, you send us what you think the theme of the show was and the nearest to the correct answer wins a special eQSL. Tune in and enjoy!

On Wednesday 2nd April 2025 at the new time of 0200 UTC via WRMI  we bring you a meteorology special with The Weather Channel. Expect some areas of low and high pressure on the show, all sorts of weather related tunes and the odd isobar thrown in for good measure. Also if goes well they’ll be a live set from the “weather-rock” pioneers Cirrocumulus. So get that barometer and thermometer at the ready and keep an umbrella at hand just in case and tune in for some forecasting fun.
