HBSA History
Broadcasting in Ayrshire for over 25 years
There have been many different logos for the station since it's beginning, and currently in use is an newly updated version from the 1990's.
This one of the various programmes schedule and general newsletters about the station that were distributed. HBSA still had the "76006" telephone number until quite recently.
This is the outside of the studio complex known as the "Hospital Radio Bungalow" even though the building has two floors. (Don't ask!)
The interior of the main studio at HBSA, complete with carts, reel-to-reel machines and record decks. The station still had some of this equipment in their store until recently.
Presenters and Members Photographs
Having been broadcasting for over 25 years, HBSA has had many many members and presenters. (Above picture is from around 1993-1994.) Some of these have went onto professional broadcast careers. Past members have moved from not so far away Colin McArdle (West FM), Gary Marshall (Westsound AM), Ben Gilmour and Gavin Wallace (Your Radio) to a bit further away, Shirley Renwick (Managing Director of Emap Television) and Jakki Brambles (BBC Radio 1 & GMTV Hollywood reporter!)
We have included a few photographs of members that we have floating around our archive, but if any past members would like share any photographs, we'd be delighted to include them here. [Click on the thumbnails below to view larger versions.]
