Free Radio Skybird: February 16 & 23
Feb. 3rd, 2020 07:09 am
It's been since the beginning of January when DJ Frederick’s Free Radio Skybird was last heard surfing the shortwaves. But don’t worry, another session is coming up, and soon it will be time to hang five again. The next transmission is scheduled to occur on Sunday 16th February at 1400 UTC on 6070 kHz via Channel 292. The show will be rebroadcast on Sunday 23rd February at 1100 UTC on 7440 kHz. If you haven’t got a shortwave radio (why the heck not?) it can also be heard on the SDR link on Channel 292’s site here.
The programme will feature One Deck Pete presenting the Skybird Mailbag. There’ll also be an airing of Pete’s “Less is more” mix that has new tunes from Mai, Mohammad-Reza Shajarian & Seventh Soul and Blanco. Mixes from Pete's previous shows are available at his audio podcast page here. Also featured will be my own Radiophonic Laboratory tuning in this time to the world of the satellites.
The programme will be available on DJ Frederick’s Soundcloud page a day or so before transmission date if you want to hear it in true stereo but we here prefer the show with added noises from the ionosphere. Tune in and turn on! #shortwavesnotdead #madtone #freeradioskybird

Next Sunday 8th December at 1700 UTC will be a new transmission from DJ Frederick’s Free Radio Skybird on 6070 kHz shortwave via Channel 292.

The show will be rebroadcast the week after on Sunday 15th December at 1100 UTC also on 6070 kHz.
This month’s programme will feature: One Deck Pete presenting the Skybird Mailbag, Justin Patrick Moore’s Radiophonic Laboratory (feat.

The programme will be available on DJ Frederick’s Soundcloud page a day or so before transmission date if you want to hear it in true stereo. We here at Sothis Medias however prefer the noise remix of the show provided courtesy of the ionosphere. Tune in and turn on! #shortwavesnotdead #madtone #freeradioskybird
