"Final day at Radio Sweden before my retirement. Got most of the stuff in my office packed." Messages can be posted there https://www.facebook.com/radiowood I'm sure many of us remember George on Radio Sweden. I certainly do. This per Wiki: George Wood began as a freelance reporter at Radio Sweden in 1975. Following the retirement of Arne Skoog in 1978 he told over the writing and presenting of the program Sweden Calling DXers and its successor MediaScan, until the latter was taken off the air in 2001. In 1994 MediaScan became the first radio program in Sweden and the second in Europe (the first in English) to have its audio posted on the Internet. More at http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/George_Wood_(Radio_Sweden) He has been Radio Sweden's Webmaster since Swedish Radio's first website launched in 1995, while also serving as a journalist for the Radio Swedish English Service. His was one of the voices in the satirical sketches in the program the Saturday Show.
