When I was a lad in radio I was taught that your headphones were the most important tool you had.

I am definately a great supporter of the BBC , despite being a life long supporter of commercial , and of course pirate and offshore radio as well.

Actually I think he was in the 558 studio, it was taken after the raid, when Caroline 558 returned they used the old dutch studio area for some reason.

At the risk of seeming obsessed, I now have the output of KCR FM streaming down to me for my private anoraking purposes. It's costing my hundreds of thousands of Pounds a day.

Hi, here's Steve's recollection from the soundscapes web site – fascinating reading: http:/​/​www.icce.rug.nl/​~soundscapes/​DATABASES/​CAR/​car17.shtml The day of the great hurricane October 16, 1987,...

Printing out photographs, using public telephones and recording television shows on VHS are other activities which are dying out because of digital advancements.

I'm not so sure that the operation of the transmitters is as costly as the programme production side of things, so the bigger cost saving would be to reduce that, I'd have thought.

Sad to read this. I have heard this station a few times in my travels around east anglia. It is certainly not the first to close and wont be the last by a long shot.

The video was meant as a joke showing what happens when the presenter is trying to do 2 things at once - ie film the travel presenter and operate the desk.

Either the TomTom or the Garmin plug-in GPS units are very good - yer spends yer money and takes yer choice!

I split music radio into two main components, and when asked to describe it, I have said you need to think about a patchwork quilt or blanket.

Two different parties contacted my company inquiring about leaflet deliveries in different areas of Sussex, but we are only a small company and had no one available to do it.

I think there'll be plenty of potential FM listeners even if the majority of listening is digital..

Bloody hell. Daytime CityTalk here in Liverpool is now a complete joke. They've sacked all the talking presenters and a typical daytime now looks like this:

 Hmmm I see no problem with the present organisation, after all, it represents what might happen in a large PLC.

Tell your presenters not to say anything but to play all the songs in bunches of three or four at a time back to back (segued).

2009/​9/​4 Eric Wiltsher <(Address removed)>: I doubt very much that will happen.

I would like to think so. However is that reflected in the latest RAJAR ? I thought audiences were generally up.

It (R Cambs) can be quite useful for travel etc but I have to be nice about them as one of my neighbours is a producer there!

I think there's another aspect of this. This is best demonstrated by the WWE – World Wrestling Entertainment.

I believe a lot can be learned by the day one of Absolute Radio. They had just one ad (well, apart from the sponsored travel bumpers) which was on pre-recorded liners and was spoken by the DJs.

No more air miles then? Regards Eric Almost half a million* of SMEs drop overseas business travel in favour of alternative communication methods * Thursday, 21 January 2010

Nice.

Get your hand off my knee and take your threepence back (to quote a Mike Ahern dropin)!;-) Kitchen radios are hardly in the same category as kitchen appliance such as toastie or smoothie makers.

The felling of the Richborough towers now paves the way for for what I have called 'Cameron Cay's'. It's true 'Boris Island' is merely a ruse.

Always had my vote Simon. My questions is will people pay for such a service.

If you've made it 244 meters to the top of London's newly-opened The Shard building then you're probably going to want to check-in on Facebook, or call your mum.

I know that, but I would refer you to your quote at the top of this e-mail where you seem to be doubting that the audience is there for culture programmes.

Quoting a previous davdo . contribution:- Hmmm. I don't like Facebook. I don't like MySpace. But if I had to pick one, Facebook seems kinda easier and cleaner.

LBC is slightly dependent on the host and the time of day. F'instance Ian Collins at 6:30 tonight followed by Nick Abbot at 10pm is a good set of examplesof fair quality listening.

Actually the 'bobby on da beat' thing is in reality neither an effective deterrent nor effective use of police time for crime detection. It is just a costly way of handing out placebos to the plebs.

I've heard about their planned programme schedule: "Convert or Die" : their weekly religious magazine programme.
