************************************* Hi Bob, Well, if I have dated myself, I wear it as a badge of honour...honestly! I know that each passing generation disparages the one succeeding it, but man-o-man, I have seen the future in the form of kids in our schools to-day, and I fear for it! I fear for my old age pension, I fear for any feeling of public spiritness, I fear for the human race. PERIOD. But I guess we have only ourselves to blame for making these self-centred inconsiderate loutish doltish privileged oafs the way they are... Anyway, back to radio... In these parts, the late 50's / early 60's meant CHUM AM from Toronto, on 1050-KHz. Those were the days of the weekly "CHUM Charts", Jungle Jay Nelson, Bob McAdory, Al Boliska, and a host of others personalities. I recall the early 60's laying in bed after lights out, hidden well under the covers, with my Sony pocket transistorized radio & ear plug, listening to the sounds of the British invasion! ~73~ Eddy VE3CUI - VE3XZ ______________________________________________________________ Our Main Website: http://www.amfone.net AMRadio mailing list Searchable Archives: http://www.mail-archive.com/[email protected]/ List Rules (must read!): http://w5ami.net/amradiofaq.html List Home: http://mailman.qth.net/mailman/listinfo/amradio Help: http://mailman.qth.net/mmfaq.html Post: mailto:[email protected] To unsubscribe, send an email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with the word unsubscribe in the message body.
