Paul Blitz's & Nigel Dallard's Techical Articles

 

These articles were originally written to give some technical help to those involved with the technical side of things for Hospital Radio stations across the UK.

They are provided as being "infomational only", and I can not provide any guarantees for the information contained in the articles (in other words, if something goes wrong, or you blow yourself up, do NOT blame me or try to sue me!).

These articles and associated circuits remain the copyright of Paul Blitz or Nigel Dallard © 1999. If you are a Hospital Radio who is also a UK Registered Charity, then you are free to use the articles & circuits within your organisation. Others must contact us before using them.

If you are involved with Hospital Radio, and need more details (maybe you don't quite understand something) then I will happily try to help you if I can: just drop me an email to techinfo@blitzfamily.org.uk, or phone the WHR studios (01962 824343) on a Tuesday evening, sometime between 20:30 and 23:30.
