ZLW or Wellington Radio was part of a chain of coastal radio stations that existed from 1912 to 1996 in New Zealand. The chain of stations started with ZLD Auckland, ZLW Wellington Radio and finishing with ZLB Awarua Radio near Invercargill. The main purpose of these stations was ship to shore communications with messages from emergency to radio telephone conversations. Large ocean liners used Morse code transmissions using medium frequencies while small ships, like a four metre long runabout, used high frequencies for the transmission and reception of radio messages. Coast stations were not restricted to maritime radio services and did radio communications for Pacific Islands and radio links to other countries, mainly Australia, Britain and the United States.
