Arthur Godfrey used to do his Tee Vee entertainment show wayyyy out
there on the end of that San Francisco Pier. Then he moved to Hawaii.

Hello Hello, he would say, Hawaii Hawaii Hawaii. I used to watch him
on Tee Vee, wayyyyyyyy back then. He was in the U.S. Air Force too.

...and he was a ham radio operator, W4LIB.

Seems to me I recall hearing him when he was in Florida perhaps, though I
think his call might have been K4LIB.

Seems to me, trying to recall, perhaps it was also him who had two R-71
receivers, or R-70's, tuned to various maritime communications. Or maybe it
was another celebrity.

Maybe someone else remembers.
