Recordings made in the 1920s
The origin of this recording is
not known - however the narrator is correct about the callsigns as far
as I have determined with various ITU Coast Station and Ship Station
Lists (This was one book at one time). In all probablility this
was a recreation made at a much later time - perhaps in the 1960s by
the AWA (www.awa.org) by using vintage spark and ICW transmitters with
the narration supplied by someone who was an operator at the time.

FINAL NIGHT RECORDINGS - 31 January 1999. Made at EJM - Malin Head Radio, Ireland.
I produced a three CD set of recordings for R/O Finbar O'Conner of
Malin Head Radio/EJM. The files are labled CD1, CD2 and CD3 and
represent the different tracks on each of three CDs. A CD set can
be produced from them by simply arranging and converting the mp3 to CD
