"This is WZYN coming out from Boston, running up to 500 KW to 1MW! Operating at 4.78 Mhz" -WZYN

Summary

WZYN or Zynden's Radio Z (formerly known as Zynden's Random Music's) Is a AM, FM and DRM station that Broadcasts on 7.38 (no longer active), 4.78, 4.48 (Japan) and 99.2 MHZ. WZYN Features Radiogram (Ex. MFSK 64 and 32) and DRM with Journaline and Slideshow Services.

History

Zynden's Random Music's started as a Pirate random music station (hence the name) on July 2, 2026. Its original frequency was 7.68 MHz AM, but it later moved to other frequencies, such as 7.45, 7.39, 7.12, and 7.10 MHz. Finally, it settled at 7.38 MHz. At the time, its only focus was to blast music for people to enjoy.

Later, on July 20, Zynden's Random Music changed its name to Zynden's Radio 7.38 to reflect that the station now broadcasted on 7.38 MHz exclusively. At this point, the station no longer just blasted music; it also began sending images via MFSK, DRM (EasyPal), SSTV, and KG-STV. On July 22, the station became a official licenced station then renamed itself one final time (potentially) to Zynden's Radio Z or WZYN, which later became its most recognizable name.

On August 5, WZYN participated in Shortwave Radiogram. On August 22, WZYN began DRM transmissions as an experimental station using Robustness mode D, which would later become permanent and use Robustness mode A instead. Then, on August 30, WZYN shut down its 7.38 MHz frequency to move to 4.78 Mhz. Following that day, WZYN announced the launch of a sister station, WZYN Japan Featuring Hatsune Miku.

Shortwave Radiogram

Hosted by Dr. Kim Andrew Elliott, Shortwave Radiogram (formerly known as VOA Radiogram) broadcasts on a regular schedule every Sunday at 14:30 UTC and Thursday at 23:30 UTC. The program transmits digital text and images over analog shortwave signals using the following structured format:

  • MFSK32: Program Preview
  • MFSK32: Article 1 (includes an embedded photograph)
  • MFSK64: Article 2 (includes an embedded photograph)
  • MFSK64: "This Week's Images" gallery
  • MFSK32: Closing Announcements

Shortwave Radiogram also has 2 other participating Stations:

WZYN

WRMI Miami Internatonal

WINB Red Lion

Like The Mighty KBC and Pop Shop Radio, WZYN also has its own radiogram (WZYN/Zynden's Radiogram) that only transmits occasionally during special events. Examples include tributes, historical features, celebrity birthdays, and anniversaries.
