Would they have been able to broadcast

edit

Apart from the obvious risks of physical destruction of broadcast plant how vunerable was the network to the effects of EMP ? Transmitters connected to large antennas and (mostly landline) studio-transmitter links would have been very difficult to protect ? 86.112.62.79 (talk) 10:10, 13 March 2010 (UTC)Reply

Other languages

edit

In the menu on the left site there's one other language for this article: German (Deutsch). But acutally, the page linked to at the German Wikipedia is NOT a German translation of this, but an article about some similar things in Switzerland... anyone knows how to fix that? — Preceding unsigned comment added by 80.138.212.8 (talk)

The photo was of the wrong mast

edit

It is a mislabelled modern cellphone tower.

The actual mast is about a mile away and absolutely massive.

This one in fact: http://www.brentwoodgazette.co.uk/Telecoms-tower-helped-connect-mobile-60s/story-16633939-detail/story.html

I don't have a photo to replace it though. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Snetter2007 (talkcontribs) 20:08, 23 April 2016 (UTC)Reply

when was the announcement recorded?

edit

"It was recorded by Peter Donaldson, chief continuity announcer for BBC Radio 4." Donaldson being dead since 2015, I would see it necessary to point out either when he recorded it, or when he held that position, or both. 46.15.69.163 (talk) 12:57, 2 April 2023 (UTC)Reply
