[HCDX] UK's Virgin Radio FM - 1995 test transmission

["Dave Kernick" <dave@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

Before going live in London in April 1995, Virgin Radio ran a series of test transmissions for their new FM service on 105.8 MHz. Interval Signals Online has a 9-minute clip of one of these very  broadcasts, an entertaining bundle of sonic fireworks (if you have stereo on your PC!) and some amusing spoof phone calls between Mick Jagger and Cliff Richard/David Bowie - sad to hear the voice of Michael Hutchence doing an endorsement though...

Hear all this on the Interval Signals Online website at www.intervalsignalsonline.com
