Radio History Under Threat
A treasure trove of radio history appears to be under threat according to my colleague Dave Gray in Kirkwall. It seems that the Orkney Wireless Musuem might have to close because they can't find or afford a new store for the museum's vast collection of artefacts.
Dave, who has been covering the story for ±«Óãtv Radio Orkney, says the collection also includes the original ±«Óãtv studio desk on which he cut his teeth as a young reporter.
I fear this might be another example of the 'curse of the blog' because I actually made a short video about the museum when I visited it way back in May 2007. It was a brief visit because I had less than thirty minutes to spare before getting a taxi back to the airport.
I had always intended to make a return trip.
I hope I haven't left it too late.
