Radio Anniversary is Celebrated in the City:

RADIO enthusiasts have been celebrating the 95th anniversary of the start of Britain’s first ever regular, advertised broadcast radio station, 2MT, which came live from Writtle. The anniversary was recognised on Tuesday February 14 February. To commemorate this anniversary and to celebrate the pioneering young team of engineers, the Chelmsford Amateur Radio Society transmitted from the same building where the original broadcasts commenced. Members of Chelmsford Amateur Radio Society (CARS) regularly transmit to fellow amateur radio hams from this historic hut and, for this celebration, a team from CARS made contact with fellow amateurs on February 12 and February 14. A special event call sign, GB95 2MT, was used to mark this occasion.
