7AD Devonport - 7BU Burnie 
Covering North West Tasmania
____________________________ 

7AD Devonport and 7BU Burnie 'provide a continuous day-time and dual
night-time transmission' and many young Tasmanians were members of
their Sunpolisher's Club and the Koala Club according to the latest
in the popular series of Long Lost Australian Radio Stars hosted by
the Radio Heritage Foundation at www.radioheritage.com.

Strange as it seems, listeners were happy to keep re-tuning their
radio dials throughout the day as both stations alternated service to
North West Tasmania in the mid-1940s. Station personalities included
Miss Rae Cross, Miss Joan Harrington, Stuart Field, John Ford and Ted
Mays.

This new release brings to almost fifty the number of such features
currently included in the Long Lost Australian Radio Stars series at
www.radioheritage.net where an increasing amount of Australian radio
heritage can now be found.

If you have your own memories, memorabilia and more you'd like to
share about 7AD-7BU Tasmania or any of the other stations featured in
the series, the Radio Heritage Foundation wants to hear from you.

It may be some old photos, booklets, newspaper or magazine articles
or even some recordings. Memories of listening to 7AD-7BU over the
years are also important and wanted because they help people
understand the important community role played by 7AD-7BU over
several generations.

The Radio Heritage Foundation is a registered non-profit organization
connecting popular culture nostalgia and radio heritage across the
Pacific. The global website is www.radioheritage.com. Run by
volunteers. 365 annual supporters are invited to each help fund
operational costs with US$50 covering one days costs.
