Well, I don't expect this message to be greeted with the excitement
that heralds the arrival of a batch of newly-digitised tapes, but
I've just completed typing up the playlists for (virtually) the whole
of 1994. It comes in at almost 37,000 words and took far, far longer
than I had expected.
You can see the results of my efforts at
http://www.avistic.demon.co.uk
In its heyday the avistic website was updated on a (sort of) weekly
basis from Ceefax listings published by the BBC, and getting them on
the website was just a matter of a quick cut and paste. Today,
however, I'm working from a mixture of ancient PasBs and handwritten
lists provided to me some years ago by various listeners and quite
apart from the typing, the cross-checking of the entries for
consistency was a huge task. There are one or two incomplete entries
and I'm sure some mis-spellings have slipped in, so if anyone can
supply me with corrections please do and I'll get them entered up.
Now I'm off to the Wikia to do some linking..
