Peter Evans on 3LO (774 ABC Radio Melbourne these days) breakfast.
Evans was not officially on air as the 3LO transmitter was ‘tuned up.’
Evans’ pre-5am testing was popular with early birds and insomniacs. Evans raved on a lot and messed around.
He was not officially on air yet.
Evans mentions it being “the first day of summer” so we know it’s December 1. Evans also mentions it being 1978, so it can be deducted it’s Friday, December 1, 1978.
