People ask me where I find out about all the strange music I listen to. Mainly it’s from the radio. Have a look at:
Pop records often pop up at the end of broadcasts from stations such as Radio Sweden and Polish Radio External Service. A full Short Wave frequency guide can be found at EiBi.
See Shortwavemusic for more examples of music from the ether.
All frequencies listed above are receivable in Glasgow (not necessarily with brilliant reception in some cases); additional frequencies may be available in other areas. Some stations have satellite frequencies – some are even on short wave – see websites for information. For medium wave and long wave frequencies, remember to turn your radio round to get the best signal.
(All times UK local: GMT/UTC winter, BST {UTC+1} summer)
Not receivable by radio in Glasgow, but worth a listen online are:
