  The memories and the fading sound :D:D: 2-0-8 and they had a religious programme before starting up at 7 pm...

  It's hard now to believe we put up with the signal fading now and again. At the time it was cutting edge radio!

  I used to go to school with Brian Connolly's nephew.

  I remember Radio Luxemburg's Sunsilk Chart in the 1970s. I think it was on Tuesday and Sunday. Used to have little radio to my ear whilst in bed at boarding school:D
