    Do you remember back in 1978 when all the national BBC radio stations had to
    change frequencies?

    We were all given a card with little stickers for the tuner dial and there
    was lots of announcements and stuff broadcast.

    Anyway, I recently found one of those cards, unused, and put scans of it
    along with captures of many of the related announcements and stuff as a pack
    on UK Nova.

    Brought back some memories especially as the radio in the garage still has
    the little stickers on the dial.

    The radio in the lockup still has them on its dial.

    Doesn't get used a great deal as it only has LW and MW - and the daily
    service seems to be permanently on.

    I remember it well (when Radio 1 was on 247) but none of my "then" radio's
    are alive today. Stickered up or otherwise.
