Hi does anyone know what freq and time that someone is doing the War of the
Worlds broadcast tonight. Somehow I have missed any of the usual
announcements. Thanks Larry WA9VRH

WWKB/1520 is Buffalo is airing both the Orson Welles and one they reproduced
a few decades ago tonight. I didn't get time, but 0000UTC is a good choice.
I have my own tape of the Welles to play and the 1988 NPR version with Jason
Robards to go back to back with.

No, but if you can get to a record shop, you can probably find it on CD.

You can always hear it here as a .wav file:

or here as a RealAudio format (.ram)

I own many DVDs, all seldom watched. But if the same movie appears on
cable, wham, I'm hooked for the duration of the movie.

You see it clearly in the loneliest little avenues between particles and

lies the fabric of the ultimate reality gripped in the fist of the all or

Jim,
Thanks so much for the URL!!!.... Right now its playing through my Eico 324
up to each of the kids rooms... The youngest (age 6) is listening to it on
her bedside clock radio, curled up in the sheets clutching her baby doll.
The older (age 9) is listing to it on a 30's zenith farm radio chassis (no
cabinet), with a 110 v to 6 volt transformer. His is starring at the dial
and the tubes (one is gassy and blue) and is totally spell bound by the
program....Bet the world could end right now and he wouldn't know it....What
a great way to end a very nice Halloween!!!!!!!!!!
Lets hope they don't have bad dreams.
Thanks again!!!

Barnes &Noble has em' in CD or cassette. Cassette for sure, because I
purchased mine there a year or so ago. :-)

Hell...let's hope they don't run out into the street screaming that
the Martians are coming to pulverize Earth! :-) :-)

You're welcome! I've saved the file to the harddrive, so I'll have it when
I get "in the mood".

Jack: But I *prefer* to dig them out of *and listen to them on* staticky,
in/out-fading, often crowded radio bands. Its simply more satisfying that way.


By golly, that's what I prefer to do, too. Shortwave radio is my roots to a
lifetime career. Also, when I'm driving the byways, I prefer to listen to
"local" AM stations. It reminds me of the pre-Interstate days.

By the way... I heard Orson Welles' War of the Worlds original broadcast. I was
still in single digit age, but the Mercury Theater was one of my favorite
shows.
