LATEST NEWS FROM WMR
14th MAY 2023
This weekend has been the 3rd weekend that the fake WMR has been on the air. It was heard Saturday and Sunday 29th and 30th April on 6284kHz, and this last two weeks on 6295 ish. Last weekend the signal really was booming out. 6295 is a great channel since Reflections Europe seem to be off air for now. Last weekend, the signal was superb armchair quality most of the late afternoon and evening.
The fake WMR has been on the air since 2000, and often popped up at this time of year.
This year we thought we would try a little experiment and see if the fake WMR wants to stick out new shows. So for a trial, there is a link below to a new show, recorded on 14th May 2023, There has never been any communcation with the operator of this transmitter, so he may not be interested. But if he is, then I would guess this would turn the fake WMR into a real WMR!!
In actual fact, the fake WMR did broadcast current shows in the past, but only after they had their first airing via the WMR transmitters. (These WMR transmitters are in quite a state of disrepair at this time, and need a bit of work done to make them work again, as did the studio recently!!) So the only difference this time is they have not been aired by WMR first.
Confused?? Not nearly as much as I will be if these shows get an airing and listeners start to want a QSL from an unknown location....lol...
WMR SHOW - MID MAY 2023

1532 We are also broadcasting this on 6925 as we speak here in the US 8)

I heard them putting out RNI Don Allen recordings as well, yesterday night. It will make sense for the operator of this TX to do something good and relay the NEW shows. As good as WMR is, people want to hear new and current shows, not stuff around 10 years ago

So which WMR is everyone talking about? I can't find that message on wmrscotland.com which I assumed was their website as the guy was definitely talking in a Scottish accent.
