Thermometers at the ready please

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.
