The radio station opened in 1926 and by the 1950s it was the biggest such station with nearly sixty masts, but it closed in the early 2000s and a school now stands on part of the site.
The artist, Allan Levy, said his mural would show “what Rugby radio was really about in its heyday when it was transmitting to the rest of the world and we were at the cutting edge of technology”.
Mr Levy is still searching for more photos from the local community and aims to have the mural complete in time for the radio station’s 100th anniversary next year.
