Tait (theatrical entrepreneurs), Buckley & Nunn (a department store) and The Herald and Weekly Times Ltd (a newspaper company). It was named after ''2LO'' in England, where the ''LO'' probably stood for London.

The station began transmission with an outside br ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |
