It’s been my experience over the years, writing andbroadcasting about radio on
stamps, that many radio amateurs and SW / MW /FM enthusiasts also have
philatelic interests. My radio stamps collection started in 1980 after
Ichanced upon Radio Sweden while exploring the shortwave bands with my
newFRG-7. Part of the program that evening was about radio stations thatwere
featured on postage stamps. Over the next 36 years my collectionexpanded to
cover 32 radio topics on stamps. Precursors- Patron Saint - Inventors and
Pioneers - Magnetic Field and Ionosphere - TimeZones - Radio Telegraphy - Morse
Code – Radios – Headphones – Speakers –Microphones - Tubes and Circuits -
Listening to Radio - Radio Stations andBroadcasting Services - Radio Studios -
