Where to file things? (alphabetically.) In a radio station, do you file the new FM antenna paperwork under “A” for Antenna, “F” For FM, or “B” for Bext (the company from which we ordered antennas.)
Do you file paperwork under the “item”, the “type” of item, or the manufacturer?
And, shall we file the following under “H” for History? “W” for WION, or “S” for Sales materials?
If you’re a fan of M*A*S*H the series, you may remember that Radar filed the map to the minefield uner “B” for “BOOM!”
Anyway, I did some filing today in engineering, and…took photographs of this old sales folder. It’s a neat piece of history….filed here under “I” for “interesting.” Including some of the things…like calling collect….and the reference to “power.”
By the way, some may find it interesting that our coverage today is better than it was back then…24/7, with two FM signals and available worldwide on any device, anywhere.
Even today we get lots of texts and emails from people telling us about how great our AM Stereo sounds, (AM stereo was not thought of back when this folder was printed)….and some locals like to let us know when they travel how far they hear our AM! (before switching to internet listening.).
It’s neat finding this folder…now…under WHAT do I file it???
Just wanted to let anyone concerned know that we ARE aware of the outage of Lowell's 100.3, WION-FM. It appears to have started about 5:30 this morning, the 10th of December, and came ON again about an hour later, but is off as of this writing at 9:45 Wednesday morning. […]
Justin's question on Tuesday was, "This item, available in Ionia cost 35 cents in 1945, what's the item? The answer was, "A TICKET TO THE IONIA THEATRE" It came from this ad in a vintage newspaper. Thank you J and T Antiques and Estates for the newspapers!
