Phil notes some updates regarding Radio Australia Shepparton site

Many thanks to SWLing Post contributor, Ian P, who writes:

Bob Padula noted some interesting information on his latest podcast–this was also played on last weeks episode of Wavescan.

[In summary]  the Shepparton site is still intact and on standby mode yet not staffed and is now Heritage Listed.  The property is still for sale yet no knowledge of any bids[…].


Thank you for passing along the update, Ian!

I recently discovered that Bob Padula, long-time shortwave radio enthusiast and publisher of The Australian DX Report, has an online project entitled The History of Shortwave Radio In Australia. It’s a thorough and informative read and is available free of charge.

Check it out on Bob’s website.
