"Bright Sparks" Australian series about the history of radio - UK Vintage Radio Repair and Restoration Discussion Forum

I have found an eight part radio series (1/2 hr episodes) called "Bright Sparks" on Radioechoes that documents the history of radio in Australia.
What I have heard so far has proven to be very interesting documenting it from its inception and on through the years with lots of first hand accounts interesting anecdotes and memories
.
I thought it may be of interest to those on here.
The series can be found on the following page:

https://www.radioechoes.com/?page=se...stralian%20OTR

Or go to radioechoes.com
Select "search by series"
Type in "OTR"
Select "Australian OTR"
There are about 370 results which will come up. A little more than halfway down the page you will find "Bright Sparks"
They can be listened to online or downloaded so you can listen at will.

Happy listening
Brian
