Re: Numbered Diamond Stickers On Radio

I remember putting those little diamond-shaped stickers on my radio. I am not sure where we got them from; perhaps they were available from shops or sent to every home, I don't know.

For years I wondered by my Dad's trusty Grundig Elite Boy had numbered diamond shaped stickers on the dial.

Eventually I found that when BBC radio swapped around all their AM frequencies in 1978 a lot of existing radios had the station names marked in the old places, so it help listeners a set of these stickers were available to mark the new frequencies.

Even before knowing this I used some spare stick on numbers from a blank tape to mark them on my radio.
