See if it suits !@Maveric can you please shorten the thread the name like "and updates on Radio Channels". Because it's not showing completely on forum page. Discussion prefix already there.
Really nice to see some real love for radio. We all loved radio at some point of time in our life. But gradually reduced the usage over the time. If you love radio, you will love this: Radio Garden
We had this "vaccum tube radio" at my grandfather house where we all lived together as a big joint family. It's not like today's radio, and won't start playing music instantly you turn on. It will take atleast 5 good minutes for the vacuum tubes in the radio to get heated up before it slowly starts the music. Real fun that was.We had it until we lived in that house, that is, around 2006/7 and it was flawlessly working for more than 60yrs.
It looked something like this in the below picture. I don't know how many of you have even seen this. Probably those who are 30+ might have seen. Pic from Google.

Oh no... It was my 2nd favourite station after FM Rainbow Kolkata. Sometimes I used to connect my old HTC mobile with pc's speaker to listen this station. It had less ads and good bengali songs collection..after 107.8 power fm shutdown now another radio station of kolkata 106.2 aamar fm also gone of air/shutdown.
the tune/song of the Radio station "Kolkatar gaan, Kolkatar pran" still in my mind!..radio station of kolkata 106.2 aamar fm also gone of air
