Hello, Not a DX test, but I have a KWAK 1240 verie from a frequency check, dated 11 April 1959 signed by Scooter Segraves, Sound Stage 124
The letterhead is a duck wearing a tux and bowtie, and quacking (kwakking?) into a 77DX type mic on a floorstand, holding it crooner style. The freq check was done on Tuesdays 0145-0200 CST and the station operated 0530-2200 localtime. I heard the freq check in New Jersey, I think just once. This must have been a schoolday no less...maybe I flunked History to stay up for this check...who knows? I was in 11th grade then. Scooter was a well known and regarded NRC'er. Is this what is sought, and if so, still needed? How may I help? 73 Bob Foxworth ---- John Callarman <johncallar...@msn.com> wrote: > Any oldtimers out there who verified a CPC DX Test Scooter Seagraves > conducted some time in the '50s from KWAK-1240, Stuttgart, Arkansas.
