Great to read this !
I noticed that even Erwin mentioned it on his blog !

Erwin has a blog?

I just hope that I will be able to tune in at the office. To Big L that is,

Yep, here: [link] very interesting!

Perhaps you could translate for us Arvid

well, he's saying he don't think that BIGL will return to AM. And he thinks that the 1395 hasn't got enough power to have a good signal in the UK. and I agree with this statement. And he's saying that he don't think there is money to bring BIGL back. Further it's the newsmessage from radiofreak.nl.

Oh Erwin , given the lengths that you have gone to in creating such a web site , might i be constructive and suggest that to gain prominence you arrange for an English translation , the majority of BigL forum members are English and whilst a few might be multi lingual , sadly for an old anorak I can only read the Queens English.

Until I read its translation I assume that you are saying is " Hey guys and Girls , there is brilliant news regarding the relaunch of our much lover Radio Station BigL. Despite what other doubters may have been saying , I Erwin the Great have always had faith that the station would come alive . We salute the English Bulldog spirit.

Many thanks for giving us Erwins message!

Which Erwin does this blog belong to? I read that there is more than one Erwin who is a radio anorak. Both tend to post in the same manner, but nevertheless they are different people.

Erwin, is this blog written by the Big L Erwin? If so, an English translation would be good.

This blog is from Erwin that's also member of this forum.

Using Google translate from Erwins blog, he writes...

The UK commercial station Big L from London returns to the Dutch medium wave frequency 1395 AM. The radio station stopped broadcasting in August last year over the frequency because the cost would be prohibitive.
According to Big L, the broadcasts resumed on November 1, 21 hours a day. Further details are not known.
In August this year announced another British radio station said at the 1395 through PM to want to broadcast. Managing Director of Orchard Brett OneGold Radio puts the radio via DAB, satellite and medium wave frequency from the Dutch will go forward.
But for OneGold is "coming soon".
First hearing is believing. There are so many promises in this regard was that it begins to be almost humorous.
And then on a rickety AM station that the UK gets barely walk Peeling? What a waste of money say that.
And One Gold, which at first wanted to broadcast this frequency has now apparently had it. Whether this is a temporary solution until One Gold is ready to start Big L so the evening and night hours will take over as early as the planning was understood me. Fuzzy all stories. I read again all the same joy and 'w****r' messages on various forums but they also know that across the pond are not as good in fulfilling promises about the whole Big L story.
"Wait and see 'as the French say ... .

That's all for now. That's all for now. ' "

Happy Saturday further.

Thanks Arvid and radiofan.....well! there are no surprises there just what we come to expect from him.
