I don't know if Ed considers me the stone thrower, but I think I can
appriciate the difficulty in his recreations. I know you can Frank, I've told him that and he read the entire thread, it cost me an arm to ship it. ;-) Thanks for that link, I just sent it to Ed and I'm going to read it also. This is part of what he sent me today. ************************************* The very first 15-minute-long Amos n Andy programs that were first broadcast from March 19th, 1928 until August 18th, 1929 were distributed on 78 rpm radio transcriptions --- meaning records (LP's hadn't yet been invented) --- to subscribing radio stations all over the country. About 50 or so of these recordings still exist, but they're scratchy and hard to listen to. (A record auction company has some of them available right now, starting with a $100 bid for each record!) Then, starting with August 19th, 1929, they broadcast from a Chicago radio station --- WMAQ --- over NBC radio stations on the NBC radio network for immediate broadcast. They were aired nightly: once for the east coast and once for the west coast, to adjust for the different time-zones. The scripts can be purchased from the Library Of Congress on microfilm by anyone; however, I'm the only one who can re-create all the voices and make them sound exactly as they originally sounded. ******************************** I've invited him to RRS, but I don't know if he knows about usenet, he never answered that question, I'd kinda be afraid some in here would yell and flame him, and he's too nice a guy for that. So it'd maybe be better if he didn't...lol. I can handle it, but I don't know if he could. ~*~*Monitoring The AirWaves~*~ *****GO BEARCATS***** Hammarlund HQ129X /Heathkit Q Multiplier Hammarlund HQ140X Multiple GE P-780's(GREAT BCB Radios) RCA Victor *Strato- World* RCA Victor RJC77W-K(Walnut Grain) 1942 Zenith Wave Magnet 6G 601M Cathedral/ Ross#2311/Rhapsody-MultiBand DX100/394/*SUPER*398/399/402 OMGS Transistor Eight/Realistic 12-1451 Henry Kloss Model One/Bell+Howell ~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~* Alpha Delta DX Sloper 57ft. 600ft. 12AWG.
