Hi Stefan and group
Most people of my age in the UK can remember AFN it was the only source
of good Pop music (apart from 208) and radio plays like "Gun Smoke"
when we were kids. The BBC was (and probably still is) controlled by
the Unions and had to have live dreary music played by a load of dead beats
which was truly awful.
Thanks for the pics.

Perhaps you could have temporary access when
the official use has ceased. I remember the
tests from the DECCA site at Puckeridge. John
