GB2RS celebrates 50 Years

The Radio Society of Great Britain is planning a series of celebratory news broadcasts to mark the 50th anniversary of its GB2RS news service.

The broadcasts will start on 25 September 2005 – exactly 50 years after the first GB2RS transmission was made by G6MB – and continue at regular intervals over the subsequent five weeks.

To mark this special occasion, the RSGB is hoping to include a greeting from its patron - HRH, The Prince Philip, Duke of Edinburgh – within the broadcasts.

The RSGB has also requested that communications regulator Ofcom allows the society to use a special event station callsign - GB50RS - during the celebratory period.
