Radiofax (radio station)

: "This article is about the radio station. For the image transmission mode, see Radiofax.Radiofax was an independent shortwave radio station that broadcast from Ireland between 1988 and 1992. It carried talk programmes on topics like science, technology and media news, as well as a variety of music. "Britain's Number Two Shortwave Station," (the BBC World Service being number one) was forced to broadcast from Ireland because all of their requests for a licence from the British government had been refused. Founder and sponsor Trevor Brook subsequently took the license battle to the High Court in London and the European Court of Human Rights in Strasbourg.
