New Zealand Broadcast History

http://www.oldradio.com/archives/international/nz.html In 1919, the radio station now called Radio Dunedin (4XD) started broadcasting in Dunedin, New Zealand when founder "Toots" Mitchell was presented with a triode amplifying tube by his engineer friend Edward Meinung. The opening song was "Robin Adair," sung by Mitchell's girlfriend at the microphone while Meining pedaled his bike the three kilometres from the sending station to his house where he had built a receiver. ( Philip Crookes interviewed Mitchell in 1965.) They broadcast intermittently until 1921, then started regular scheduled programming two days a week. Those broadcasts led to the start of the Otago Radio Association, which was founded and started regular broadcasting thru the already existing station in 1923. 4XD is still there, broadcasting on 1305 kHz under the slogan "We were here first." The first station in New Zealand was built by Professor Robert Jack at Otago University in Dunedin. The small transmitter was imported from England and activated November 17 th 1921.
