No birds do sing

Hi FastRadioBurst 23 here letting you know of our forthcoming shows this week. On Sunday 21st April 2024 at 0900/1300 hrs UTC on 6160 kHz and then at 2000 UTC on 6160 kHz and 3975 kHz we have WREN beamed to Europe via Shortwave Gold. This show will feature lots of our feathered friends and we will be bringing you some bird-watching related classics and live birdsong. Binoculars and a bird watching chart at the ready please!

On Thursday 25th April via WRMI we bring you another episode of The Shortwave Music Library at 0200 UTC on 9395 kHz. DJ Frederick flicks through his music collection and brings you more eclectic tunes for your listening pleasure. Expect a multi-genre selection of course.

We are still looking for some financial help to cover our production and transmission costs for our shows on shortwave so here’s our fundraising video below. We’d love to keep our show on the air for the rest of the year and we are looking for donations (no matter how small as everything helps) to keep our shows bouncing off that ionosphere. Remember, radio connects us all!

For more information on the shows please email [email protected] and check out our old shows here.
