Walsall Hospital Radio, established March 18, 1978, is an internally broadcasting hospital radio station based at the Manor Hospital in Walsall, West Midlands. It is a registered charity and is staffed by approximately 25 unpaid volunteers who support the station by either presenting shows, helping with station administration, fundraising or all three. ==History== Walsall Hospital Radio originally started broadcasting under the name ‘Radio Lions’ on March 18, 1978.〔(http://www.walsall-hr.co.uk/history )〕 The station was named after the Walsall Lions Club who had set it up and initial broadcasts took place on Sunday mornings from a converted bathroom at the top of the hospital's Salisbury Wing. The station moved to its current home at the top of St. John’s Wing on October 8, 1983 and expanded steadily during the eighties with the station’s popular live broadcasts from Walsall FC matches commencing in 1988. In 1992 Walsall Hospital Radio adopted its current name after outgrowing the stewardship of the Walsall Lions Club. 1992 was also the year in which the station’s main studio was refurbished and a proper mixing desk installed. The station’s second studio has reequipped in early 2002 with a mixing desk and additional playback equipment. It was officially opened by ex-Walsall Hospital Radio, then Heart FM, DJ Tushar Makwana. WHR purchased a computer playout system in 2003 enabling the station to broadcast 24 hours a day. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア(Wikipedia)』 ■ウィキペディアで「Walsall Hospital Radio」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
