This Day: 1989. Atlantic 252 started test transmissions on Long Wave. The station was to become hugely popular in the UK - and a real influence for our commercial radio. aircheckdownloads.com/Atlant…… #radiomoments

Replying to @The42_ie
You'd miss analogue spill over all the same. If @rte and @2rnNMC put 252LW back on air then at least receivers up north would have sound if not pictures. Due back on air August 12th. Best maintained transmitter in the world.
