Quite an interesting video of Stair being scammed:
th-cam.com/video/3ZHdjUNHwjQ/w-d-xo.html
I miss Brother " Scare " he was funny to listen to.
Link. No good.
@@MikeDijital I mean you can still hear him on countless American shortwave stations, unfortunately in my opinion.
Updated link?
I was listening recently to Brother Stair going on about a local rock band practicing and picking up his transmission on their (probably badly earthed) amps. They thought it was the voice of god and called the number to talk to him. Stair put it down to divine providence. I put it down to living 5 miles away from a 200kW transmitter. :)
brother stair...misrepresented the teachings of christ!
I used to work at BBC Droitwich (Wychbold) and the Duty Engineer at Pebble Mill relayed a call from a resident of the town who was picking up Radio 2 LW on her cooker. The rusty contact of a heating element was causing rectification and thus demodulation, so you don't really need sensitive equipment when you're adjacent to this kind of power.
@@rolyswansea8439 How does that work? Did the cooker have a radio or speaker built into it or did it just somehow play a ghostly Radio 2 broadcast?
@@rolyswansea8439 I knew people who lived in Wychbold whose radiators would pick up Radio 4 LW...was it at Wychbold that someone got nicked for stealing electricity by putting a contraption on his roof to change RF to EMF?....
@@STABBATICAL The element would have had a DC current flowing through it, varying in strength and therefore electromotive force, with the audio. There was a similar effect with the enormous HT chokes on the transmitters themselves, so at Daventry I could go into their enclosure, similar to a mains substation, and listen to John Peel on the World Service. Fantastic bass for Reggae but rubbish treble.
I am a South Carolina native, working on my seventh decade of life. I'm also an active, mainstream Christian. This guy is by far not our only deceased religious broadcaster. A radio evangelist in our northeastern city of Greenville has been dead for over fifty years, yet his family keeps him on shortwave and they continue to solicit donations. I hear him regularly. Also, you can still hear South Carolina native Reverend Ike selling his "prosperity packages," even though he has been gone thirty years. Yes, the small state of South Carolina is big on the religious airwaves!
Reverend Ike... d*mn 🤣
Same here I'm in Horry county, Georgetown county
Happy to see he's full of bs even after death.
@@fu3kMuhammad Me too!
Does Rev. Ike ever play on 4840? I was just reading about him in Bob Larson's book of cults (talk about glass houses haha)
He's not the only person broadcasting from the dead. Time station WWVH on the island of Kauai in Hawaii, USA uses the voice of the late Jane Barbe, long been known as the voice of many telephone recordings where calls didn't go through. Jane passed away of cancer in 2003, yet WWVH still uses her voice to this day.
It's almost a kind of immortality.
Doot-doo-DOOOT!

Also, the late Dr. Gene Scott can still be heard on the shortwave dial as well.
Jane Barbe's voice can also still be heard hourly as a prerecorded station ID for ham radio station W4BOC. Like WWVH, that recording was made long ago. Keeping things the same is a good thing. WWV on the mainland replaced their original male voice some years ago. That man was also the voice of our local time and temperature phone service. That business got sold and an automated voice took his place.
@@LatitudeSky A similar thing happened on the London Underground (Metro). The guy who recorded the station announcements died and his widow would ride the trains "to be closer to him". When the system was upgraded with new announcements, Transport for London left just one station with the old voice, - his widow's local.
I was a thorn in #BrotherStair's side from about 1993/94 when I found him on my shortwave radio all the way up till his passing. He knew me as RABISHU. In one of our last phone conversations we talked about the love of #shortwave, the only topic we seemed to agree on. He probably holds some kind of #WorldRecord with purchase of airtime on #ShortwaveRadio stations. If not, he's gotta be in the top five I would figure. Of course he's not the only Voice-of-the-Dead on SW but love him or hate him he's made his dent in the #WorldOfRadio. I wish shortwave radio had more variety, but we are stuck with #BroStair hogging up the airwaves for a long while I would figure. Hail Shortwave!!!
A lot of that he got courtesy of the people behind Radio Caroline. He got the farmers that lived on both of his farms Florida and South Carolina t help with a couple of North America Offshore Radio projects so in return they gave him the airtime, and still are.
Most short wave listeners called him Brother Scare, and also was making memes about a device that helps filter out his SW transmitters called the Brother Stair Filter. I first heard him around the mid to late 2000's around that time, and he was all over the place on the SW radio bands.
He’s also on several MW stations including WEW in St. Louis MO. but Bro. Stair’s time may be coming to an end. I’ve noticed a lot of his programmes are slowly being replaced by others.
He still is all over the place on the SW radio bands.
He was also known as Profit $tair.
Local TV engineer here... One thing I'll say about religious broadcasters is they're reliable for testing your receivers. For decades if you needed to test a C-band receiver or calibrate a dish, every satellite engineer knew where to find Shepherd's Chapel (until recently on Galaxy 16).
It’s actually pretty interesting how extensive his reach is given how limited his actual appeal would really expected to be.
Yes, he was a crazy old coot when he was alive, can't imagine many people sitting down and actually wanting to listen to what he had to say.
When he finally passed away, I was convinced his transmissions would finally cease. Oh boy, what a rookie assumption that was!
The one thing about Stair is that he never lived the rich lifestyle. He was always frugal with the money spending it all nearly on shortwave broadcast and probably set up the ministry to run for years. I wonder how it's doing down there in Canadys now that he's dead? Is one guy in charge now or a committee of elders?
Should've called himself The Lincolnshire Preacher 😉🫠😂
Lol good one!
When I first started venturing out of the Amateur Radio bands for a listen, his was one of the first voices that I heard out there. I also remember for the first 6 months after he past, the airwaves were devoid of his voice. It was weird not hearing him out there. I'm guessing the Overcomer Ministry decided for income's sake to get his recordings back on the air.
My great grandmother gifted me an old boombox as a kid in the 90s. It had this mysterious 'shortwave' band on it - Brother Stair was one of the first things I heard. It was such a trip for me, because I knew the signal was coming from the other side of the globe. Didn't care much for the subject matter, but it helped make shortwave intriguing and totally addictive. Which reminds me.... there was an evangelical broadcast one night from Papua New Guinea - they claimed to have the dead body of one of their pastors in the studio, and were going to resurrect him 'live on air' - a lot of hooting and hollering for half an hour straight, but they admitted it wasn't successful.
@@MattExzy Wow, that's insane! I could imagine how bizarre that had to have sounded.
@@digitalchaos1980 It was crazy! This was the year 2000... he kept talking about "the coming end of days" which was a common theme for those stations. Whether or not they really had a deceased body with them is debatable, but being the PNG, who could say. It's stuck with me all this time; it was totally bizarre.
Yeah that was like a nice extended vacation when he was SILENT but as the saying goes 'all good things must come to an end'...unfortunately.
I believe it was actually part of an attempt to weasel money out of people. Brother Stair himself wasn't on but for a while they were broadcasting constant messages pleading for people to send them money which they supposedly needed to keep his messages on the air along with recordings of calls from people saying how much they loved hearing Brother Stair on the radio. Mostly from little old ladies and amusingly often getting his or the ministry's name wrong, I remember one lady calling them The Overcoming Ministries.
Brother Scare (Overcomeer Ministry) was one of my favorite shortwave programs, especially the Sunday services with the out of tune tinkling piano, the muttering of a room full of people and the occasional shout of "I LOVE YOU JESUS!" from some random dude in the crowd.
It was so bad you just couldn't help listening. His wife's singing was just awful.
@@rebeccamacgregor549 It was a glorious trainwreck that you could NOT turn away from.
@@MattChampion train wrecks don't repeat themselves, this is more like a natural disaster lol
Brother thousand yard stare
You can still hear "Doctor" Gene Scott on shortwave and he's been dead for almost 20 years. "Get on the telephone" was his catchphrase as he urged listeners to call in to donate to his "ministry" but which he actually used to support his lavish lifestyle. I'm currently listening to him on 5935 kHz, WWCR in Nashville, TN.
I heard my current hometown "Red Lion, PA"!! And these transmissions fit right in with the local ..um..uh,.. christians with a lowercase 'C.
Thanks Lewis. I have often heard this guy over the years when scanning through the airwaves at night.
I often heard him on my shortwave radio back in the 80s / 90s - I did send him a reception report once but didn't get a QSL card - I did receive a program guide though. Very interesting to listen to him but I am not a religious person at all. He did rave on a bit !
Like most of that ilk, he's way outside the bounds of reality. I should say was...
saying he raved a bit is like saying a carolina reaper is spicy
Perhaps he didn't know what a QSL card is. Lol.
If they need another frequency for additional transmissions, I've heard that 1215kHz has recently become available for yet another 100kW transmission ;-)
😂😂😂😂
In Cold War days, almost every frequency carried Radio Moscow or Soviet jamming. Then a few years later, it seemed to be Brother Scare. Now it's China.
even if it seems perfect English, few seconds, and BAM - it's China.....
Great video! Oh how many times I’ve heard his voice while turning the dial.
Should be named Brother SCARE. You needed to hide your children from his grouping hands.
Very true just talk to Pastor Mike Mcintyre New Horizons Calvary Chapel church Pittsfield,,Ma..
The Wikipedia page for Stair "interesting" reading. Classic cult with all the nasty add ons.
Yep, concerning his "interest" in young girls, i.e. juveniles.
You’re not wrong there Ron, scary stuff
Now that was interesting as for many years I lived about 15 miles from his community in SC.USA. I moved to CT. USA about 3 years ago and did not know he passed away. It is crazy that the other day I was learning to use a dongle and the first thing I heard was Brother Stair, can you believe it! 73 Leo.
Many years ago in the early to mid 1990's, Brother Stair had a ton of interesting guests on his broadcast from the patriot and conspiracy community. Including Linda Thompson, Anthony J Hilder, Mark from Michigan, Jeff Baker, Jim Keith, Terry Cook and even William Cooper (who would go on to broadcast his own show "The Hour Of The Time" on shortwave and satellite). If you thought Art Bell and his UFO stuff was interesting listening, you should have heard what was on Stair's broadcasts in the 1990's with his guests! I first ran across his shortwave broadcasts in 1993 on WRNO shortwave, transmitter was from New Orleans. A bit later I found WWCR. Now whether or not you believed Stair (or his guests). He was interesting to hear. In fact, in the 1990's in the U.S. there was all types of conspiracy related programming from many other broadcasters other than Stair that made for most compelling listening throughout the shortwave dial.
I used to listen to brother Stair starting in around 1985 on cassette tape and then around 2003 I got me a little Grundig shortwave radio and heard him a lot of times back then. The friend that had the cassette tapes took a trip to South Carolina to visit him and stayed there for a while but I guess they had a falling out because this friend of mine tried to teach him a thing or two LOL
What a familiar voice for years.
I remember listening to his fire&brimstone years ago..entertaining stuff...!!!
his voice still creeps me out even to this day, more now that he's dead.
S this ministry can afford to lease such high powered SW transmission sites and yet Bauer crap out their AM station because of 'costs'.
Did somebody say 'tax dodge"?
I used to catch him on both AM radio standard, and various short wave frequencies.
praise the lord
Fascinating, thank you
This is great. I've not listened to shortwave in years. In the good years of propagation when I listened, Brother Stair was all over the dial. There wasn't much on the web about him back then, or most of the US based commercial shortwave stations. So this is really interesting. Thanks.
I think this was broadcasted on 1386 many years ago as I remember encountering it on my car radio on the way home from work.
Another deceased preacher who is still on the air, at least online, is Sathya Sai Baba. He had a channel on the Afristar radio satellite sometime around 2001. This channel was free to air but was threatening to become a subscription one, and I would not have subscribed. As it happened the Worldspace satellites went off the air a couple of years later. Fortunately the Hitachi radio was also a very good MW and SW receiver. I still have it but haven't switched it on for some time. That was essentially the main problem with Worldspace, that the radios were very expensive and also power-hungry, especially for the regions they were marketed to.
Offshore radios are the true pirate stations because they are unlicensed and operate in international waters. Might be an interesting subject for a future video.
Read somewhere that someone created a fake numbers station using His voice 😄
I would love to hear that.
would be funny
This was an extremely fascinating video
I exchanged QSL cards with WWCR many moons ago. I was listening to them on my (since sold) Racal RA17. Good video, as always Lewis. 73
The spookiest thing about this is that anyone WANTS to hear such broadcasts.
Most of us just tuned in for the entertainment, especially when he would flip out and go totally nuts on the air with screaming fits.
Thanks for the video. I now have time to play with radio (rather than study for exams) so SWL may be on my list. I appreciate you giving the freqs so the rest of us can listen
I'm a ham operator and love your channel.
The guy I remember was the Elder Jacob O. Meyer on WMLK. I heard him back in the 1980s or early 1990s can't remember exactly when. I did get a QSL and it's around here somewhere. According to his wiki he died in 2010 but his children took over and still broadcast his sermons on WMLK.
We're all being annoyed by a dead man shouting. Only CRI beats that. But great video! Unless I completely mess up channel292 is in southern Germany, as far from Hamburg as it gets.
And many people are annoyed with the woke crap polluting the Airways
Brother Stair still being broadcast in February 2024.
I heard them say Channel 292 so it must be 6070 kHz from Germany.
Im a wiccan but listened to im for years. He was sure entertaining.
I need to dig out my recording of the "Brother Stair numbers station" I made years ago.
From the video title, I was expecting a honest investigation into Electronic Voice Phenomena
Thanks for posting. 👍
Brother Stair sounds like he got his name after falling down a few of them and landing on his head.
He's not the only one. Pete Peters and Gene Scott both are alive and well on shortwave radio. Death doesn't stop them.
Oh yeah, Pete Peters is still spewing his racist ideology all over shortwave, too. I thought Dr. Gene Scott was still going on SW after he died but didn't know they were still broadcasting his shows today.
My dad had a basic guitar amp. One day it suddenly started picking up a particular FM radio station (might have been TV audio, it was a program simulcast on radio and TV). It was a bit weird and it only happened the once.
Any idea what this might have been or why it happened?
I listened to him for years i particularly like the chanting in the tabernacle
Thank you rwm
Thanks RM. I Always Wondered about Brother Stair and his Radio Broadcast. Anyone who has Ever Drove into World Band Radio has heard this Voice******
Over-the-air pollution
I used to listen to him regularly. In fact I was going to move to the compound as a welder I was going to train others to weld and build bunkers.
The wonders of radio and tape recorders.
He and some sort of 7th Day Adventists are about all I can receive clearly in English in my corner of the US.
Very annoying as the stations used also broadcast interesting things, but on other frequencies and transmitters :(
isn't that weird, him and some foreign station is all I can hear in the daytime haha
Brother Stare oh boy. We have stayed in
Walterboro, SC, off I 95 in the past.
Service was slow at the restaurants there.
Great story, Lewis! I had no idea the ministry was being broadcast from all those transmitter sites. I think I only ever picked it up from WINB and WBCQ. Side note: I often lamented the fact that there seemed to be such a preponderance of evangelist broadcasters 'taking over' the airwaves, often broadcasting at ridiculously high power. Unless I had a particularly selective radio, I remember often having trouble distinguishing adjacent signals. (We wer not amused.) Cheers! 🙂
I think maybe 2 years ago last broadcast in europe on 6290
Maaaaannnn oh man......yeah I often used to hear Bro Stair on shortwave, WWCR, sometimes interesting
You ever read about his background......man he's done so many things with women, girls.....he used to watch adult material while on the air, because he could take "strong meat".
He's also made all sorts of predictions and prophecies, there is a website dedicated just to all Bro Stair's erroneous prophecies, he claimed he was "greater than Jesus", that certain cities would disappear, etc.
brother scare
I heard him on my multiband radio in South Carolina.
Thank's for another great video Lewis! You must be a big fan of airplanes, because in every video of yours I can see one or two big jets or some planes (he he) The best from LB1NH 🙂
They’re cool shots aren’t they?? Glad you noticed ;)
Great video! I appreciate someone covering the topic without the virtue signaling. Nothing really matches the creepy atmosphere of listening to Brother Stair on shortwave late at night alone. I'm in the poughkeepsie NY area and catch it on 4840 khz. I'm not comparing William Cooper to Brother Stair in anyway, but I would love to pick up "The Hour of our Time" somewhere, but never seem to find it, any suggestions?
Same, I am not I interested in this stuff but it was good that it wasn't just feeling based reporting..
Excellent video!
I have to say that for me living in North Carolina even my shortwave crystal set has no problem picking up WRMI at any hour and the others mentioned 🙂
I'm not a Christian but I'll listen to Brother Stair sometimes. I'm not sure why, but I do find it entertaining in limited doses.
I think I stumbeled over a broadcast from this guy last night, was using my Saba Freudenstadt 100,very very weird.
He’s on AM here and i also hear him on shortwave.
Some of those brokering stations… I get they need money to stay operating, but is it worth the damage they do to shortwave? I once stumbled across Infowars and it was so deeply ugly that I stopped tuning the shortwave broadcast bands for years afterwards in case I stumbled across it again.
The truth of this world IS deeply ugly. Somebody needs to report it.
The Channel 292 transmitter site Waal (Rohrbach) is located in Bavaria, not near Hamburg. Or did I get something wrong ? But interesting video as always !
I love listening to this guy as background noise. I found him kind of late, but I'm glad they keep his craziness on the air
Very interesting. I found this station on two frequencies. Heard it in texas
I dont know too much about SW radio . So bare with me here. My question is .. How far do these signals transmit ? would someone say, me, here in Canada be able to pick up a receiver and tune into stations around the globe or am i stuck with whats around me ? Ive been watching your channel for a bit now and have always been curious about it . I would love to get one4 and start recording some things for music creation and to Learn something new . Now i am able to rig up an antenna if need be so if thats something i would require i can do that . Any info or some Links to help me get started and/or learn more about it without going down a rabbit hole of stupid, I would greatly appreciated as i dont even know where to start . Cheers .
Short wave signals (HF) have a global reach, depending on the frequency and time of day.
Buy a half-way decent world band radio for around $50 or so and off you go.
Brother Stair is actually one of the least interesting signals on the HF bands.
This radio is a good choice since it has Single Side Band (SSB) therefore you can monitor hams and other interesting signals like utility stations.
Tecsun Digital PL368 AM/FM/LW/SW Worldband Radio with Single Side Band Receiver
The SWLing Post is an excellent source of information on shortwave listening.
I'm in upstate NY, with a sixty year old receiver and an antenna that's little more than a loop of solenoid wire strung around my garage, and I regularly pick up at least a couple stations from Asia (Japan and India specifically). I guess it depends on the time of day, but if you were to set up a decent rig (not just using whatever crap you have lying around like I did) I'm sure you could pick up all sorts of interesting stuff.
Man we live in the most interesting times.

Lol
😂😂😂
Let's hope the funds don't dry up. This is the only thing that's keeping some of these transmitters on air. I'd rather have loony preachers on the bands than just static.
I can hear Brother Stair in Ritopek, in Serbia.
Is this anything to do with the Irish or maybe Italian station that sell or lease airtime...
excellent listening😮
A phantom transmission? This kind of weird stuff is what drew me to sw listening.
Interesting structure on that mountain. It looks like a lighthouse, but I'm sure that is not what it is.
I remember one time a few years ago just scanning various sw bands and I think I heard him on 9 frequencies in a 5 minute period. While I didn't enjoy his content I guess he did keep(and still keeps beyond the grave) quite a few broadcasters on the air.
Brother Scare is useful as a propagation beacon modulated with nonsense.
Slohb
Interesting info. I’ll take a listen. Kinda reminds me of Jonestown! Hey, what’s the hilltop transmitter on outro?

Having been interested in all things Radio, since the 60's, I can't tell all the times I tuned across this Man, never having a clue what he looked like, but as typical for voices, they seldom sound like they look !
But then to hear here, he may have been into more nefarious things, is surprising !
Makes me wonder if they were trumped up charges to try and silence him ?
I just had to see if the crazy bastard was still out there. Tuned in to Brother Stair on a web SDR out of Georgia. 🤣🤣🤣
have heard him scanning the bands late at night. listened maybe 2 minutes before moving on. signal was weak. they should now remove him as he has died.
ive picked up that station on my sdr unfortunately its like all over the SW broadcast band
keep your *radio by your side!
Absolutely crazy. I'm wondering if the Germany transmissions can be received in the UK.
Thanks to technology even the dead live on. Also Elder Jacob O Meyer (WMLK) and Dr. Gene Scott. Many radio evangelists are deceased, but live on radio.
They are probably reruns ngl.
Can’t let a little thing like death interrupt a good scam. Keep those contributions coming!
Wasn’t there a big SW broadcaster in Florida that recently shut down?
Wow.
W8flt was a Elmer. talked to me about ham radio. To honor him I got my tech licence. Then I went general. As his sun set I would talk on CW. HAVING NO OSCLATOR FOR SUCH. he would tap his missive to me by tapping the desk mike stand. We carried on for 6 years that way. I got word he had passed. On a stormy night.I Doug the old rig out.. it had only one xtal. I listened for a hour to clear out the cobwebs..keyed it and I.D. ed my selfe. Knowing there's no one there.just as I was ready to take my homemaid rig off line. The I herd a tapping???. I called back. Qrz? I asked . Tks tks tks om . De f8flt agn w8flt. How u? Good. My reply. Thinking this is a joke.? He asked how's home ? I told him the lowdown all that had changed. This operator was tight and I'd after each xmition and gave me a pass word we used . Then he faided out. Then back. He gave a final and never called again though. I get out the rig just static.....
Neat
I wonder if that was someone doing it or him from beyond the grave haha
Also congrats on the license all those years ago btw
Went on to advanced op yet about a month before he passed I took a visit to hospital...we would take hands. he could not speak. And squeeze hands in code. As I would not tell his wife what was said I was baned from his room. Just "73" om was said. Sgt Williams retired de kv4li "73"
