Hi, This is not about YUSA but still is interesting reading for all of us. “Mystery of BBC radio’s first broadcasts revealed 100 years on” (Source: BBC News via Jon Langley) The BBC is celebrating the centenary of its first official broadcast – a news bulletin that included a court report from the Old Bailey, details of London fog disruption, and billiards scores. It was broadcast by London station 2LO, but new research shows many early BBC moments came from northern England. Manchester station 2ZY aired the first children’s show and introduced the first regular weather forecast. Birmingham’s 5IT station broadcast the first “official concert” The BBC that began broadcasting at 6pm on 14 November 1922 was not the British Broadcasting Corporation of today. It was in fact the British Broadcasting Company and was made up of separate stations around the country operated by different companies. London 2LO was run by the Marconi company. Manchester’s station was operated by Metropolitan-Vickers. However, in these early days few records were kept of what was broadcast. But new research on the BBC’s very early days has been carried out by Steve Arnold, a self-confessed Radio Times obsessive. His tricky task was to try to piece together the BBC’s schedules before the Radio Times – so named as it listed the times that the new medium’s shows were being broadcast – was first published in September 1923. He explained he found information in “gossip columns [in regional newspapers] mainly, people saying we listened to this last night and this is the only record of some of these things”. Now, using sources from archive documents and newspapers, Steve has begun to piece together a picture of what the early BBC was doing.

For those interested in what the broadcast days sounded like on that fateful day of November 22nd 1963 during his assassination, Corey will be presenting coverage. It will start on Tuesday November 22nd at 1:30 Eastern and 10:30 Pacific. All of this is on YUSA Orange the newest YUSA network and linked on www.yesterdayusa.net. If you are a collector of this material, you may already have it but it still is interesting listening and especially if you’ve only read about it but never heard the actual broadcasts. John

Thank You to all who donated and bid on all of the great prizes for the Yesterday USA Auction. Your generosity will go a long way to keep the stations thriving for the next year. We will also soon have a Kick Starter campaign beginning to add to the station income which will help us with software and hardware upgrades. John
