This is quite interesting, I wonder if these were loft heros, sounds ok modulation if recorded off air.

The dial is Glowing 88-108 , spin the wheel to light those Red LEDs , see signal needle rise.

I've never heard of this station but then again I have never lived in Salisbury!

The funniest thing i’ve heard, the kazoo fanfair, maybe the tape lost the treble or it was run without preempis like an old fm bug, good listen though ‘raving for the elements’ that made me lol sounds like that song was a mix of racy ian dury/captain sensible

google says that idi amin was a dictator, comedians would do impressions, i’ve not heard the name in years, its probably not above board to do these impressions today, the time checks were a bit funny.
