The first stereo radios were simultaneous AM and FM, receiving one channel
on AM and the other on FM, had to tune them separately.

When Cable TV promised no commercials
When even NBC was B&W.
It was in B&W even after that until you could finally afford to buy a
color TV. And those families who had a TV only had one of them.
When radios came with only FM because AM was dying.
Don't remember that, but I well remember my introduction to rock 'n roll
came because I somehow came into possession of one of those flimsy
Japanese 3-transistor pocket radios.
When raw hamburger was safer to eat than today. (Yes, it was so in the
60s.)
The first McDonalds in town where you walked up to the window to buy
your $0.20 hamburgers after you got out of church on Sunday.
When there were no national pizza chains.
Before there was a drive-thru restaurant.
But there were drive-IN restaurants, and the waitress who brought your
order wore roller-skates.
