S.P.A.R.C. Museum

Society for the Preservation of Antique Radio in Canada

“The British are coming”! Cars and music, that is. This is an annual show held at Fort Langley – this year on April 25th, 2010. SPARC had two tents – a radio display area, and the remote broadcast table. To be in tune with the many wonderful antique British cars, we featured “British Invasion” music, and played old jingles and clips from the British Pirate Stations of the 60s. For this show, we used a very compact broadcast set-up, using the Collins remote mixer (detailed further in the Mission Museum story on this page).

Here are DJs Peter and Martin at the broadcast table. Peter is interviewing the group “The Fab Fourever”, Beatles-revival musicians who were on-site that day.
