A TWILIGHT ZONE KIND OF WHAT IF?..AND A SIGN OF THE TIMES?

.
Please make point to download this week's editions of This Week In Amateur Radio and This Week In Amateur Radio International for the Random Access Thought!. On the TWIARi side, a submitted for your approval: What If. What if the 50,000 watt short wave radio giant WBCQ at 7415 KHz was, perhaps in a parallel dimension, a 70's vintage beautiful music FM station and This Week In Amateur Radio consisted of program elements reduced to thirty second stop sets in a string-driven musical ocean of Mantovani, Percy Faith and the 101 Strings?
.
Actually, I wonder if anyone even remembers this once formidable format that became manifest in the mid 1960's, flourished the 1970's and died a slow and painful death by the late 1980's. Stations like WROW AM and FM in Albany, WKCI in New Haven and WEZG in Syracuse were just some of the remarkably successful broadcast outlets that were programmed by such top gun syndicators as Bonneville Broadcast Consultants, Master Broadcast Services and the Big One: Schulke Radio Productions. I remember these stations because I got a chance to sit in the air chair and make a living in all of them and now these many years since, I began to wax nostalgic, or at least I did in 2005 when I first produced this Random Access Thought. And now, four years later, while dusting off the cobwebs in the N2FNH Virtual Vaults, this lost treasure has been rediscovered and updated for air...or pod...as the case may be.
.
Meanwhile on the TWIAR Ham Radio Service Side: The Virtual Wife! Fellow ham and close friend Jeff Bennett WA2AIB took to wife hunting in the twenty first century not too long ago, but inside of flowers and candy, he sweet talks his young lady with Ventrilo and Skype. If you don't know what these things are, you'll just have to download, listen and find out! This special Ham Service RAT is an interview I conducted with Jeff and his virtual wife Kristen and recorded around the same time I cut the "TWIAR In An Alternate Reality".

If, for any reason This Week In Amateur Radio is not accessible or if you simply wish to cut to the chase, these two Random Access Thoughts have also been posted as mp3 files at http://twaud.io/users/N2FNH and http://www.twitter.com/N2FNH
