On this day. March 5.
\n1972. GBR Ealing. Radio Nelson is raided today in the middle of their weekly broadcast. This is their second raid.
\n1983. GBR Epsom Downs. 90.0 FM. Surrey Sounds is busted today, during their final show of the day, at 16.40, having been on air since midday. Rob James and Martin Hill are caught and subsequently fined \u00a3440 each. This, combined with no spare parts, puts the station off air permanently
\nDoes anyone know what frequency Radio Nelson was on please?
\nAs ever, any additional bits that can be added – of any date will be gratefully received and credited.
\nThanks
\nBert<\/p>\n
