There has been a broadcasting service in Stanley (the capital of the Falkland Islands) since 1929, when a wired Rediffusion system was established under the ... See more direction of the Governor, Sir Arnold Hodson K.C.M.G. This service was known to most people as “the box”. It consisted of simple loudspeakers in people’s homes, which were connected by overhead wires directly to an amplifier situated at the radio station on Ross Road. The service was also carried to some outlying farms by telephone lines and gave many people their first experience of radio. The engineer responsible for the establishment of this service was Mr F.A.W. Byron.
