Ruins of the radiostation "Rudiger" at Rosocha Hill in South West Poland holds many secrets and bares the scars of WWII visible all over the building. I absolutely love to see places like this! Scene lit up by the Moon and light painted by me on the inside.

The Grimeton VLF transmitter is a VLF transmission facility at Grimeton close to Varberg, Sweden. It has the only working Alexanderson alternator rotating armature radio transmitter in the world and is classified as a World Heritage Site.
The transmitter was built in 1922 to 1924 to operate at 17.2 kHz, although it is designed on frequencies up to 40 kHz.. The antenna is a 1.9 km (1.2 mile) flattop wire aerial consisting of eight horizontal wires suspended on six 127-metre high freestanding steel pylons in a line, that function as a capacitive top-load to feed energy to six grounded vertical wire radiating elements.
The Grimeton VLF transmitter location is also used for shortwave transmissions, FM and TV broadcasting. For this purpose, a 260 metre high guyed steel framework mast was built in 1966 next to the building containing the 40 kHz transmitter.
En daar is ook de Amsterdamse Kersttram weer: de 2058 heeft ook dit jaar weer een mooie feestlivrei aangetrokken- maar toch weer nét even anders dan voorgaande uitvoeringen.
De tram werd dit keer vastgelegd in de Beethovenstraat, al zal zijn muziek niet direct te beluisteren zijn op het non-stop radiostation dat ook dit jaar weer als sponsor optreedt.
Meer foto's van trams rond de feestdagen zie je HIER:

This was one of my dad's radios he'd listen to during the day, especially when he was in the bathroom. It's still there & reminds me of him. It's not so bad having some of his things around. They're nice reminders that he was alive.
Another of my dad's radios he'd have with him in the bathroom. This one was for the shower, but after awhile, it always hung there. It doesn't work anymore, as the buttons are all worn off & don't press down anymore. I put the time 1:43 on there using an editing app called PicSayPro.
143 has meaning to my generation. Back in the 1990's, if you had a beeper, this number meant something. To us Northern New Jerseyans, it meant I Love You. That's why I chose that number
The Cork radio station Red FM broadcasts some of its shows live from this "pod" at Mahon Point shopping centre. HSS! Sorry to post & run but I'm off bird watching to the coast for the day so I'll catch up with comments tonight.
Main entrance to the derelict radiostation where there were only empty rooms so I've filled the void with a bit of LP.
"[...] sometimes I look at my pictures and I can hear the sounds of the city: the cars, the unsatisfied people, and that does me some good.
I begin to wonder if I am not lucky to live an atmosphere of peace in the midst of all this mess ... "

Radio station on the North Sea in the 1960's and 70's. I used to listen a lot to this Pirate Pop Music Station. The station was very popular in NW-Europe.

An old radiostation in Kootwijk (Gelderland), still in use as an conference centre, sometimes open for public tours but mainly a impressive piece of design.
Art deco building housing the studios of WUPE-FM & WNAW.
WMNB 100.1 is now WUPE-FM and is on that tower you can see on Hoosac Mountain way in the background.
WNAW is still 1230 AM and recently added an FM translator on 94.7 transmitting from same tower site as WUPE-FM. The tower for WNAW is 1/4 mile down the road. Sadly WNAW is now country music. Yuck.
The WMNB call letters are in use across town at an LPFM community station now.
This shot of GCHQ communications station at Bude, Cornwall, has taken a long time to achieve and a lot of planning and organization. Firstly, permission needed to be sought to photograph at the station perimeter at night and then the images needed to be security vetted and approved for publication. I STRONGLY ADVISE that you do not photograph near the perimeter at night without the knowledge and permission of the station security.
It is a composite of sky and foreground all taken on the same night within 300m of the base perimeter. The sky was a stack of 8 images with a Samyang 14mm and the foreground are taken with a Canon 50mm 1.8 STM. The blending of the two images took some considerable time.
The image may be used during the GCHQ Centenary Year celebrations.
There's nothing quite like doing a first show at a radio station! You're actually simultaneously learning how to use all the hardware AND focusing on keeping up a seamless program with no on-air errors.
The show simulated the format, pacing and energy of vintage Top-40 radio, specifically the Bill Drake formatted stations like KHJ in Los Angeles and CKLW in Windsor, Ontario. I used 1960s and 70s digitally remastered jingles, promos and contests from my collection and copied them to tape carts for airplay. The show also featured real vintage commercials for products which no longer existed.
As a weekend show, I had complete control over the contents. The show was a mix of well known tunes along with copious amounts of B-sides, as well as many album tracks which should have become hits in their time, but never did.
At 10,000 watts, we were getting calls and requests from most of Connecticut, Long Island and even parts of upstate New York.
Often long-distance listeners on the internet would also call in to make requests and comment on the show.
I had a key to the transmitter room and would crank the Aphex Compellor audio compressor settings WAY up to give our broadcast output that old-time sound of loudness and punchiness.
Every show was recorded on VHS-HiFi tapes and I've since remastered them to CDs for my aircheck collection at home. In fact, I'm listening to one right now as I write this!
In 1917 there was already a temporary reception station and a temporary transmission station for wireless telegraphy on the long wave on the Malabar plateau near Bandoeng on the Dutch-Indonesian island of Java, for contact with the motherland. There also needed to be a counterpart in the Netherlands. After studying different locations, the choice fell on a part of Veluwe, a sparsely populated region. In the early years the station was called "Radio Hoog Buurlo", to the nearest hamlet. Also the name "Radio Assel" was used both for the village near the channel and for the station itself, also to a nearby location.
The piece of forest and heathland, totaling 450 hectares, purchased from Staatsbosbeheer, was completely un-exploited in 1917. There was no direct road connection yet, which at the end of 1918 the operators moved a narrow-gauge railway to the Assel stop on the Oosterspoorweg, which connected the rest of the Netherlands with the supply of building material. The terrain was leveled, which meant that all vegetation was removed in order to have an undisturbed 'transmission circle'. When freight transport became more intensive, a (normal) rail was also built to Station Kootwijk, also on the Oosterspoorweg. This track continued to exist until 1947. Nowadays, the route of this railway is a paved road: the western part of the Radioweg.
A large antenna was built, consisting of copper cables that were connected to each other and hung on six 212-meter-high masts, and copper cables underground. A radio station was built in the heart of this system. This was housed in a reinforced concrete building, designed by the architect of the Amsterdam school Julius Luthmann (1890-1973). For the design of the main building, Building A, the architect was inspired by Telefunken's broadcasting station in Nauen, Germany, and thanks to his interest in Egyptian mythology also by a sphinx.

Dublin's 98fm radio station, the sound of the city mobile broadcast bus is seen at Stephens Green broadcasting their afternoon slot with Barry Dunne.
This is former Dublin Bus ALX 400 AX 544, formerly of Donnybrook Garage, which seen further service as the 1916 tour & now all wrapped up for 98fm.
I preferred to do my gig with the overhead fluorescent lights on, but turning them off gave the studio a pleasant ambience.
Radio Kootwijk is a former transmitter park on the Veluwe, west of the town of Apeldoorn, which formed an important communication link between The Netherlands and its former colonies, in particular the Dutch East Indies, in the first half of the 20th century. It was built from 1918 (architect: Julius Luthmann). The broadcasting function ceased altogether in 1999. (Source: Wikipedia)
