Many thanks to SWLing Post<\/em> reader, Paul Golder, who writes:<\/p>\n

This is a bit of a long shot.<\/p>\n

I used to listen to a lot of DX programmes in the 1980s (around 1982-1985 mainly) and one of the stations I used to listen to was BRT’s English service on 1512kHz.<\/p>\n

Does anyone remember the closing theme tune to their DX programme (Radio World?) or have any recordings of it? It was kind of Jean Michel-Jarre ish and was played out every week (about a minute or more) – I’ve never been able to find it and it’s been stuck in my head for 30 years!<\/p><\/blockquote>\n

Post<\/em> readers:<\/strong> I you can help Paul, please comment! If you have a recording of the theme song that you can share, I’ll post it as well.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
