I enjoy reading old ham magazines. As I read, I've often wondered how the bands sounded years ago. I imagine the CW bands sounded much the same, except more crowded (like I remember the 40m novice band when I started in the mid 70s), but what about the phone bands? The other day I was reading about an island DXpedition in the 50s that concentrated on phone. The pileups must have been very interesting. Many, many AM signals, lots of hetrodynes - all would have sounded a lot different from today. Your suggestion to preserve, and make available online, samples of past ham activity is a really great idea!
