Thanks for the show and for the details.

That is going to get a good place in my weekly report, published every wednesday in the online French version of Offshore Echos (for suscribers only). 

edit :suscribers to the printed English edition have free access to the online editions

just up dated the web site so if you missed the broadcast on 6305khz of the final show from radio galaxy you can hear it on line .The 1997 broadcast was after radio Merlin got raided three times in a row, so we thought we would fire up the old FM TX  just to say goodbye .hope you enjoy it http://radiomerlininternational.weebly.com/radio-galaxy.html
