Thameside 20Jul80 9:15pm and dedications flood in

Part of an extended broadcast from Thameside Radio 90.2 with Sarah taking calls. It’s so busy that we even get to hear Sarah answering the phone on air with a call from Howard for Dave, Ian Lawrence and Bernie. At this point Thameside Radio had installed a permanent transmitter in Trellick Tower and set up a live Band III link so could broadcast as long as they wanted. (Band III used to be home to low quality 405 line TV but there were a lot of clear channels. It’s now used for DAB.) The phone lines are very busy with an awful lot of dedications. Here are just a few Danny and Carrel in Swanley, Carl, Bruce Bill Dave and Anna; Andrew of Brentwood for Adam, Class 4D and Brentwood County High School; Bob Lawrence, The Royal Free Network, CMC motorcyclists, Mick of Carshalton, Carshalton 6th form, Neil Chris Arnold & Kevin.
