One of the final recordings I ever made of the BBC's signal on longwave....they had a good run...100 years and now they are gone. This is one of two recordings I made that I didn't post, prior to their closure.

Copied on 25/05/26 at 23:48 hrs UTC using the Wellbrook ALA1530 magnetic loop antenna via a Bonito AntennaJet RF splitter and GI1000 galvanic isolator.

Thanks for watching and 73.
