I remember buying my very first transistor radio in the late 60's and tuning into Radio Luxembourg every night, underneath the sheets. Via het gastenboek van radio 5 heb ik deze site ontdekt. Luxy always was and will be my fave station, so its wonderful to find this. Thanks. It is White a shade of pale - Procol Harum 29.5.1967. Hi..Great Site..I listened to Radio Lux at nights when I was a kid back in the 70's and never forgot that great closing theme, I now found out it's called Maybe the morning by Marian Montgomery, and then it was some classical piece afterwards I recall.

Hello Dick
Ian. Today I'm running a website about another great (little) European station from the 60's, far smaller than 208 but with the same amount of charisma, charme and heart: www.radio-cae.de
If there was ever a time for Luxy to return it's now, as internet radio is established! However, wasn't there a female who signed off with the words "Good Night Johnny Boy in French, German and English? The station was very top40 based and it featured a powerplay record after the news on each hour. He just had to say the stationcall and wait
It is wonderful side, I am the great fun of Luxy 1959-1963 (I am 55)

Brings back good memories of many, many hours by the medium wave radio, listening to music, jingles, commercials, news - and (often) very entertaining DJ's. Your site is full of memories for me. Asti - Italy (22/11/2002). I also enjoyed listening to AFN and, later, the "pirates". He played the discs and the commercials - the announcer could only do the talking and indicate when the next item was to be played. Good Job. Geweldige site.
