I was an Atlantic 252 listener and listened to it whilst decorating the kids bedrooms many years ago. No streaming then, you either bought a hard copy or listened to what was on the radio.
I know I have said before of this forum, some years ago I worked at a Herefordshire farmhouse with an impressive radio shack in the study, the lady said her husband really contacted farmers in distant places, when I said he could Skype them she told me to wash my mouth out with soap and water.
