Here at Transdiffusion, we maintain a number of internet communities where you can chat to fellow enthusiasts and even meet up in person now and again.

If you're interested, check out one of the forums below!

Radio

The WireList is an email based discussion forum dedicated to chatting about radio broadcasting in the UK, with the emphasis on the nostalgic, the trivial and the esoteric.

See for yourself by visiting the list's homepage on mb21.

Television Presentation

The mhp-chat list is for anyone interested in old and new television, particularly the bits before, in between and after the actual programmes.

Topics for discussion include old test cards, continuity announcers and announcements, breakdowns, television graphics and music, idents, logos and jingles, engineering information programmes, old children's television, etc.

The list has over 400 subscribers from all walks of life and all ages. See for yourself by visiting the list's homepage on the MHP.
