Yes, but the Word Service was using really old gear - what would have been considered "legacy" even at the time. Local radio still uses similar stuff in some parts of the country. But anything made post 1980 will be hi-Zin, low-Zout by default, perhaps with options for 600 ohms if they want to sell to people with legacy installations.
Bear in mind I'm talking general studio and broadcast centre kit. It's different in transmitter installations, which are always much longer-lived - and don't get changed operationally like studios.
But take it from me - 600 ohms is a PITA. I don't miss it
