Its all part of the BBC’s retreat to the leftist north of England, to that bastion of working class spirit, Manchester. The BBC belongs in London. Nuff said.

Did I see a building just like that in Chicago maybe? It seems like a specific piece of architecture.

Can people outside the UK participate in the auction? Can’t seem to find any relevant info.

Good place to pick up a couple of SL1210s. The day they are no longer needed is far, far away, thankfully.

“junk auction has nearly everything you need to start a radio station”

Not junk – hence the auction, hence people bidding fair amounts. The major equipment you’d need for transmission are not in the auction. There are many places you could get “everything you need to start a radio station”, but you’d need money. As you’d expect.

A quick look showed dozens of factory-boxed cassette decks and stereo receivers.

This looks more like a Circuit City liquidation sale!
