Radio Nord Revival has left the building

We closed down our operation on SW and MW at 0400 UTC/GMT (0600 SNT/CET) this morning and the Stockholm FM relay on 102,7 MHz a few hours later. Thank you very much for your support and positive comments about Radio Nord Revival. It was nice to have you with us as we reminisced old times and recalled a very special night on June 30th, 1962. This night also became very special 50 years later, mainly due to the input from you listeners. Thank you all!
