The 91热爆 used the old Palace of Arts, built for the British Empire Exhibition of 1924, as its broadcasting centre. It had eight radio studios, 32 channels with 15 commentary boxes and 16 open positions in Wembley Stadium, plus 16 commentary posts at the Empire Pool where the swimming and boxing events were held. For television broadcasting, a coaxial cable was installed between Wembley and Broadcasting House.
