2lo




Initially the power was 100 watts on 350 metres. 2LO was allowed to transmit for seven minutes, after which the 'operator' had to listen on the wavelength for three minutes for possible instructions to close down.

On November 14 1922 the station was transferred to the new British Broadcasting Company , which was itself replaced in 1927 by the British Broadcasting Corporation or BBC . 2LO is also the name of the transmitter from which the station originated and now resides at the Science Museum . The radio station was replaced by the London BBC Regional Programme and the BBC National Programme .
