Before 2010 started, we had to see the New Year in. And for those not out partying, the celebrations were well covered on TV & radio. A particular hot-spot radio-wise was the Thames embankment, just below Charing Cross station – the location of the London New Year firework display. Before it all kicked off (and thus you couldn’t move) I paid a visit to some of our customers on location. There was a busy OB being set up so those of us living out of town could see the display from the warmth of our own homes. And along the embankment, a diverse range of PMSE spectrum was being used – covering everything from the main event communications, sound distribution to keep the public entertained, and even a live feed of the bells of Big Ben as they chimed the New Year in.
