RTÉ News report on Medium Wave closedown 24/03/08

Easter Monday -- March 24, 2008:
RTÉ Radio has closed down its last Medium Wave transmitter at Tullamore, County Offaly, after providing the radio signal for the station's programmes for the last 82 years. The move has been taken, for what's described as 'economic and environmental' reasons. But some listeners have complained that it will further reduce their variety of programmes.
