Where did 2XX begin?
There are multiple answers, but a signficant location is the transmitting station in Giralang, just off the Barton Highway. The building was destroyed by fire, probably arson in 1988.
The radio mast however is still visible today. As a rare example of a free-standing 1928 tower, it ought to be heritage listed.
There's quite a story here - not just of the facilities, but of the people and the issues that made our station. In this interview Kimmo Vennonen describes those early days. Kimmo was one of the first station technicians and subsequently manager.
He talks about some of the highs and the lows that make our story.
