WBCQ The Planet

Prime time is available on our 9330, 5110, 15420, and 7415 transmitters. Now is the time to get your program/network up on the growing international shortwave bands.

WBCQ has the lowest broadcast rates in the industry. We have the staff and equipment to do it right. Whether your program is on CD, Internet feed, audio file download, phone feed, or even cassette tape, we can get your program on shortwave radio. Our powerful transmitters will get your word out to a very well informed radio audience.

Call us first, or call us last, but make the call today and get on the shortwaves. It’s what free speech radio is all about.

Call 207-538-9180 today!

Area 51 on WBCQ will be dropping all weekday programming starting Monday, February 1, 2010. We really hate to do this, but we aren’t able to sustain the programming given the level of support received to date. We will continue weekend programming on WBCQ 5.110 MHz, from 6pm to 10pm US eastern time Saturdays (2300 to 0300 UTC) and Sundays from 5pm to 10pm eastern time Sundays (2200 to 0300 UTC).

Area 51 is listener supported, free form, free speech radio. If you like our programming and would like to help us stay on the air, you can donate via PayPal at www.worldmicroscope.com, or send your contributions to:

Area 51, 28723 Ridge Road, Mount Airy, Maryland 21771-4436 USA
