I think to change it to British Vintage Radio Society would be silly. Whist 'Wireless' could be construed to exclude TV, Audio etc, the society has been around long enough for folk to know that it does cover those activities. A change to 'Radio' could easily give the impression that it now only covers radio to the exclusion of all else.

If membership is static or falling the reasons lie elsewhere, not in the title.
