Radio Dublin History Sheets - 1976 (393k pdf) These two early history sheets brings the Radio Dublin story up to the time when Sunday afternoons on 253m, and 227m on some evenings were the only transmissions. Full time operation was still a long way off. During this period, the station could normally be reached through the FRC address of 90 Ranelagh, Dublin, as could Radio Westside, Dr Don's station on shortwave |
Radio Dublin History Sheets - 1977 (610k pdf) These three history sheets, signed at the end by 'The Captain' give a more detailed account of the Radio Dublin story up just before the marathon broadcast of Christmas 1977, which was to lead to full seven day operation several week later. The station now not only had its own mailing address of 20 Ranelagh, Dublin, but also advertised a telephone number. |
Radio Dublin History Sheets and Sched 1980 (387k pdf) The two Page History of Radio Dublin from 1980 were received in September, and brings the Radio Dublin story up to the point when Channel 2 was is operation. The station studio during this period was between locations, as can be seen by the two seperate addresses on these history sheets. Also at this time, Radio Dublin was putting out a very powerful shortwave signal in the 48 metre band. |

This image was stamped on the envelopes sent out to listeners in the late 1970's. Radio Dublin were obviously not frightened to advertise the fact that the letter was coming from them. |
