I expect that all real radio amateurs will be listening to Terry Wogan's
last morning broadcast on Radio 2. It's the end of an era.

The last time I seriously listened to the BBC, it was called the Light

The difference between Wogan and the M1 motorway?
You can turn off the M1!

Around 20 years ago he did an untendered deal with BBC chiefs
to exclusively supply taxis to BBC staff at rates dictated by himself

His Taxi Co has probably made for him more than his "honest" BBC contracts

One wonders what other BBC contracts that people don't know about
that have been invented for him?

He's another one which has taken advantage of the total lack
of anti racketeering laws in the UK

Nepotism, you know it makes sense

Is that why you enthusiastically call in the after news net on 5MHz,
Walt?

The real Walt and the e-Walt are two different entities.

The jury is out on that one. The last ROATA mag I saw was like an
obituary column.
