Incredible Radio Tales

Richard Dillman, who is the driving force behind the Maritime Radio Historical Society (MRHS) has produced a show on KWMR called “Incredible Radio Tales.”  This is a show that talks about the various sounds heard on the radio, both natural and man-made.  Many of the shortwave frequencies are used for “utility” uses.

He does a great job explaining things like Skyking, numbers stations, and so forth.  It is a great show, I can imagine this story being told on Halloween.

You can listen to the first episode here, it’s about an hour long:

This is a great example of local radio doing local things. I have no idea if the other episodes are going to be put up online.
