All broadcast output is automatically recorded by our systems, and these recordings are retained for a minimum of 42 days. This is a legal requirement for URY. In addition, recordings are maintained for archival purposes.
You can opt-in on MyRadio for every episode of a show to be automatically published to [https://mixcloud.com/URY1350/ Mixcloud] and the URY website. You can later opt-out of this for a show on MyRadio. URY Computing Team may remove old episodes from Mixcloud and the URY website upon request.
