Wireless? Does it pick up Radio Luxembourg?

Only on the Long Wave

What happens when the batteries go flat, or it loses the wireless signal?

what happens when they don't sell the batteries anymore¿

You upgrade to their brand new hypersonic solar charging system of course

Medium wave wasn't IT?

Correct! They broadcast for 30 years on long-wave before moving to MW in 1952 on 208 metres.

The station provided a way to circumvent British legislation which until 1973 gave the BBC a monopoly of radio broadcasting on UK territory and prohibited all forms of advertising over the domestic radio spectrum.

It boasted the most powerful privately owned transmitter in Europe (200 kW, broadcasting on long wave). In the late 1930s, and again in the 1950s (on MW) and 1960s, it had large audiences across Britain and Ireland with its programmes of popular entertainment, and was an important forerunner of pirate radio and modern commercial radio in Britain.

i am done collecting. maybe i should have 4 or 5 10spd campagnolo bikes, with a chestfull of parts and open pro rims. i have, but it's shimano 6800 and 8000 parts. was cheaper and easier to buy. i couldn't give a hoot what the bike industry scrapes from the bottom of the barrel for sales now. i feel all warm and fuzzy. Campagnolo can charge 60$ for a cap all day long now until they follow suit and sell out to the saudi's. i hope it's loud and audacious. i digress

I hope they never do! The Saudi's own nearly everyone anyway, but I know a few Italians and they're always the last to leave the party. I've invested in mostly SRAM the past few years and it's gonna take something groundbreaking to make me switch to another groupset.

Who knows, could even be Campagnolo to break the mold
