New Radio Heritage Documentaries

The Radio Heritage Foundation (www.radioheritage.net) has released
two new radio heritage documentaries through Radio NZ International.

The first of these is currently available as a podcast at
www.rnzi.com (Other Audio/Mailbox) and is a rare recording of the
1963 Top 20 radio show from 2ZC Hawkes Bay in New Zealand.

The documentary comes complete with music, station IDs for 2ZC, local
adverts and typical sound effects of the period.

The documentary is linked with the article 'From Hawkes Bay to
Replay' at the Radio Heritage Foundation website
www.radioheritage.net which contains photos of the DJ and the panel
operator and a personal story behind the scenes of the 2ZC Top 20
show.

On Monday, October 1 2007, RNZI broadcasts a second documentary
featuring the history of Pacific radio during the 1941-1950 period.

This covers the broadcasting scene around the region during WWII, the
occupation of Japan, and the reconstruction period for SE Asia, the
Philippines and other locations.

The documentary includes classic Pacific music melodies of the
period, and also covers new stations in Samoa, Fiji and other
colonies of the time, as well as reviewing broadcasting from
Australia and NZ during wartime censorship.

After broadcast during the Mailbox program on RNZI, this documentary
is also available via podcast at www.rnzi.com.

The Radio Heritage Foundation is a non-profit charitable trust.
Hundreds of pages of articles about Pacific radio and searchable
Pacific radio databases are available for free at
www.radioheritage.net.

Coming soon at www.radioheritage.net - Shanghai Radio in 1941.
