[AMRadio] Music from the 40s
Todd - I know it doesn't sound the same as those 6V6's pushing your speaker, but there are streaming alternatives on the internet. Somebody said that WABC streams although I have not checked out their website. There are also quite a few on live365.com. My favorite though is WMKV in Ohio. Pretty much 24/7 40s style music. Lastly there is XM radio which has a channel devoted to 40s music. I don't have a good AM broadcast receiver setup in the office at the moment but I will soon.

Re: [AMRadio] (no subject)
- Original Message - There was also a station over in NY that played big band music a few years ago, but they got bought up by Disney and ended up playing children's music and soundtracks from Disney movies. Think it was WQEW? Up near the top of the dial. WQEW runs 50 kW on 1560 kHz and it switched from classical to adult standards/big band music in December, 1992, around the time that Michael Bloomberg bought WNEW and switched it to an all-business news format under the call letters WBBR. Disney leased (and later bought) WQEW from the New York Times Corporation, converting it to the New York outlet for the Radio Disney children's network around 1998. WQEW began operation in 1936 as W2XR, an experimental high fidelity AM station on 1550 kHz. The call letters were changed to WQXR when the station began commercial operation several years later (the uppercase Q looks like the number 2 in script, so they preserved some of the original call letters) and the classical format continued until December, 1992. WQXR-FM is the oldest commercial FM station in New York, beginning operations as experimental W2XQR on 45.9 MHz in 1940 and becoming commercial W59NY in 1941. Around the end of World War II, the call letters on 45.9 became WQXQ and the new WQXR-FM began broadcasting on its present frequency of 96.3 MHz. The call letters are now WQXR (without the -FM suffix), the station is still owned by the New York Times, and it is New York's only commercial classical music station. Disney also killed an excellent big band station in Mt. Holly, NJ, WWJZ on 640 kHz. It is now the Radio Disney outlet for Philadelphia. When one of the principals of WWJZ died some years ago, a dispute among the remaining owners resulted in the sale of the station to Disney. In the daytime, WWJZ can be heard well into the Delmarva Peninsula. What a waste of a great signal! I am glad to hear the oldies program on WABC and I lament the general lack of music programming on AM. In New York, the AM band is a wasteland of time-brokered ethnic and foreign language programming, paid religious broadcasts, and talk shows, with two all-news stations owned by the same company (Infinity Broadcasting, now CBS). So much for editorial diversity! The hottest place in Hell should be reserved for New York Mayor Michael Bloomberg for killing WNEW and replacing it with an excruciatingly B-O-R-I-N-G business news outlet. I grew up listening to that station and its potent signal on 1130 kHz was my constant companion. When Bloomberg bought that station, he consigned thousands of vintage recordings to the Dumpster, including a lot of early Frank Sinatra records and old airchecks. Those are irreplaceable. WNEW is the station that gave Frank Sinatra his start. It was also the birthplace of the disc jockey. Variety magazine coined that term in reference to Martin Block, who played records on his Make Believe Ballroom program because WNEW, a small independent station at the time, could not afford to retain a house orchestra full time. Regarding Mr. Bloomberg: Y'mach sh'mo v'zichrono! Phil Galasso K2PG
Re: [AMRadio] Music from the 40s
- Original Message - I often hear 40s and early 50s music on CBC Toronto 740 AM. (Used to be CBL Toronto.) The CBC does not own the 740 kHz outlet in Toronto anymore. CBL moved to FM several years ago and is now CBLA on 99.1 MHz. The CRTC (Canada's equivalent of our FCC, but concerned strictly with broadcasting matters) required the CBC to vacate 740 kHz if they wanted to move the CBC Radio One service to FM. The station on 740 is CHWO and it does play excellent music. CHWO keeps me company during my long Sunday night drives from New Jersey to my new home in Pennsylvania. Phil Galasso K2PG
[AMRadio] Propogation Report for Saturday
Go ahead and plan to clean the garage, wash the car, straighten the sock drawer, etc this Saturday, especially if you are within normal upper band range of Mississippi. Why? Because I am installing a new A3 tribander, and should be ready to test it near noon. My 36 years of experience says that there is an almost certain guarantee of dead bands whenever I attempt to test a new antenna. Mike Duke, K5XU American Council of Blind Radio Amateurs
