Episode Synopsis

You will hear contributions from Wolf Harranth in some of the Media Network archive programmes. You might like to know that I interviewed him on camera for my video blog and that both parts of that tour are now on line. Wolf leads a team that has built the the world's largest documentation archive for radio. This reportage will definitely interest anyone who remembers or collected broadcast station QSL cards. In fact the millions of QSL cards, magazines, books and unique government records tell the story of communication across international borders. They survive on help from volunteers and I hope that this second video will help to explain why they are so passionate about preserving the golden age of international radio. It reminds me of an early version of Facebook. This site doesn't like embedded video. So more details here: Part One:http://vimeo.com/10320815 Part Two: http://vimeo.com/11129204
