When i was young i listened to Radio Luxembourg and they were transmitting on 208 meters (1440 kHz). They mentioned this in their jingles.

This transmission on 6280 is not there anymore. A pity I missed it.

              In my youth, Radio Luxembourg was the only music station that young people behind the "Iron Curtain" listened to. It was an open window to the free world. Thanks to their music, several generations of music fans have grown up! I still don't understand how they didn't survive in the new times!
