We hope you find it useful. Enjoy this return of an old favourite: and set mediauk.com on your browser favourites list.

The year before I had listened with excitement to the launch of our local commercial station, Liverpool's Radio City, and wanted to find out what other stations I might be able to pick up. In those days the Guide covered TV as well as radio, which could only manage to fill two pages – but then there were only 19 “ILR” stations.

  • Mass Observation and Public Engagement
    Impact case study (REF3b) Institution: University of Sussex Unit of Assessment: UoA 30 History Title of case study: Mass Observation and public engagement 1. Summary of the impact Mass Observation has encouraged public participation in the creation of knowledge since 1937 and pioneered the dissemination of social research to a mass audience. Active collaboration between Sussex historians and the Mass Observation Archive continues to shape popular understandings of modern British social history, specifically through work with the media. This partnership has also created an Open Educational Resource through which the public can gain a hands-on understanding of the very recent past. Working with the Mass Observations Project, Sussex academics encourage ‘ordinary’ people to write directly about their lives within a structured environment, creating historical sources for the future. 2. Underpinning research The Mass Observation Archive is a charitable trust in the care of the University of Sussex, awarded designated status by the Museums, Libraries and Archives Council as having outstanding national and international importance. Its unique collection profoundly shapes our understanding of everyday life in modern Britain. It contains diary, questionnaire and survey material generated between 1937 and c.1960, and discursive ‘directive’ responses from a volunteer panel of writers who have contributed to the on-going Mass Observation Project (MOP). Over 4,500 people have taken part in the MOP since 1981; there are currently 500 volunteer writers. The underpinning research of this case study is a series of publications and digital resources that collectively reveal ordinary people’s understandings of themselves and their social worlds, providing an empirical and conceptual underpinning to an ever-expanding public interest in social history.

This was received by Ofcom on 21 July and it has been considered under the Freedom of Information Act 2000. You asked: Please can you provide information or maps that adequately describe the Coverage Area of the following FM services, with sufficient detail to understand the contour within which these services require protection from incoming interference from new or upgraded sites on co and adjacent channels. I hesitate to use the term “MCA Map” in case this is not the right terminology for the BBC transmitters that Ofcom has responsibility to manage spectrum resources for, however, information equivalent to “MCA Maps” would be ideal.
