Many thanks to SWLing Post<\/em> reader, Bill (W8LV), who writes:<\/p>\n

I hope the SWLing Audience out there is familiar with WBCQ, and owner Allan’s Show: Allan Weiner Worldwide<\/a>. It is broadcast on WBCQ 7.490 every Friday at 8 PM EST. It’s a Free Form Show with an email and call in number.<\/p>\n

Allan talks about anything that crosses his mind, and of course that includes radio with every show. All of the shows are also archived at www.wbcq.com<\/a>, as are many of the other offerings of WBCQ.<\/p>\n

I also want to mention that Former Pirate JP Ferraro has a show there called Shortwave Saturday Night<\/a>.<\/p>\n

There are also many other shows, both live and archived on the WBCQ website! Ham radio, Marion’s Attic<\/a> with the old cylinder records, etc…<\/p>\n

And, the merriment of Former NYC Pirate Johnny P. Lightning is heard on WBCQ every other Sunday from 8PM EST till 11PM, frequently with a pre-show that starts at 7:30PM. John also takes emails and calls. You can also catch John’s Show: Radio New York International, a.k.a. A Little Bit of Radio Everything Radio Extravaganzo live encores, with archived ALBORE
\nshows at the 11L Network site:
\nwww.johnlightning.com<\/a><\/p>\n

These are real radio people, folks. And WBCQ is such a wonderful station, currently broadcasting on three frequencies from Monticello, Maine.<\/p>\n

I hope you tune in!<\/p><\/blockquote>\n

Bill, you’re right: WBCQ is an amazing<\/em>\u00a0independent shortwave broadcaster!<\/strong>\u00a0WBCQ staff are all true die-hard shortwave listeners as well. A great bunch. I also tune to the shows you mentioned above–another one I love is\u00a0beHAVior Night<\/a>\u00a0on WBCQ every Friday at 5:00 PM EST.<\/p>\n

Thanks again, Bill!<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
