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:

We are re-arranging some of our programming in order to save costs at WBCQ. This impacts the air times of many programs in our weekend blocks on WBCQ 7.415. Here are the schedule changes, effective Saturday, November 7, 2009:

• Marion’s Attic moves from Saturday 5 PM eastern time on 7.415 MHz to Sunday 5 PM eastern time on 7.415 MHz
• WGOD Presents moves from Saturday 6 PM eastern time on 7.415 MHz to Sunday 6 PM eastern time on 7.415 MHz
• The Lumpy Gravy Radio Show moves from Saturday 7 PM eastern time on 7.415 MHz to Monday 7 PM eastern time on 7.415 MHz (Note that Lumpy Gravy and Timtron will remain on Saturday 7 PM and 8 PM respectively, on 5.110 MHz only.)

• The Last Roundup moves from Sunday 6 PM on 7.415 to Friday 3 PM on 7.415 MHz. This displaces World of Radio and Amos And Andy that was previously in this time slot.

Note that these schedule changes will result in WBCQ 7.415 MHz being dark on Saturdays, with the exception of The Overcomer Ministry, which remains on from 9 PM to 11 PM.

One more programming change of note:

• The Secular Bible Study has ended it’s run on WBCQ. It’s time slot, Monday 9-10 PM eastern time, is being taken by The Overcomer Ministry.
