GOODBYE OL
FRIEND,
WE WILL MISS YOU!
SOMETIME AROUND THE
MIDDLE OF THE MONTH WE START TO ARRANGE ADVERTISING FOR UPCOMING MONTHS.
SO THE DAY BEFORE YESTERDAY WE MADE THE USUAL CALLS TO THE USUAL SUSPECTS...THE
LAST BEING:
IT WAS A GOOD THING WE
WERE SITTING DOWN! WORLDRADIO AS WE KNOW IT IS GONE AFTER THE JANUARY
EDITION. CQ MAGAZINE WILL KEEP IT GOING BUT ONLY AS AN ONLINE
PUBLICATION.
BACK IN 1980 WHEN THE
"22 CREW" AND EDUCOM BEGAN, EVERY CHILD THAT ENTERED THE EDUCOM CLASSROOM GOT A
WELCOME PACKAGE AND IN IT WAS A COPY OF WORLDRADIO.
NO OTHER HAM
PUBLICATION AT THE TIME OR TILL NOW REALLY WORKED IN THE CLASSROOM LIKE
WR. PLENTY OF PICTURES..PEOPLE ORIENTED STORIES...YOU COULD COLOR
IT.....AND THE PRICE WAS RIGHT.
HERE AT CREW HQ WE WILL
MISS WR GREATLY AND WE KNOW THAT OUR COOPERATING MEMBER SCHOOLS AROUND THE
COUNTRY WILL ALSO. AS A HAM WE MOURN THE LOSS OF ANOTHER PART OF THE
HOBBY AND AS AN EDUCATOR WE REGRET LOSING A VITAL CLASSROOM
TOOL.
SO LONG WR...WE HATE TO
SEE YOU GO!
…AND YOU THINK YOU HAVE AN ERECTION
PROBLEM?
FUGGEDABOUDIT.....IN THE COMING WEEKS YOU TOO WILL WORRY
ABOUT ERECTING THE CHRISTMAS TREE. LOOKING AT IT ALL DECORATED
AND PERFECT..THATS THE GOOD PART...GETTING IT UP IS ANOTHER
PROBLEM...WHERE IS THE STAND? I KNOW IT WAS HERE LAST YEAR...OK WE GOT
IT ..BUT WHY ARE ONE OF THOSE SPECIAL YOU CANT FIND IT ANYWHERE BOLTS MISSING
THAT HOLD UP THE TREE?
WHEN WE PUT THE LIGHTS AWAY LAST YEAR NOTHING WAS TANGLED...THEY
ALL WORKED....YO WHAT HAPPENED... THIS IS LIKE A RATS NEST OF WIRES AND HALF OF
THEM DON'T LIGHT....
I KNOW WE HAD MORE DECORATIONS THAN THIS...SOMEWHERE THERE ARE
AT LEAST 3 MORE BOXES....
AND ON AND ON AND ON....BUT BE OF GOOD HOLIDAY CHEER AS NONE OF
US HAVE THIS KIND OF PROBLEM:
GREETINGS FROM ROCKEFELLER CENTER ON FRIDAY THE 14TH AS THE TREE
ERECTION TAKES PLACE.
DON'T FORGET TO DUCK:
AND AFTER MUCH PULLING AND PUSHING AND YELLING IT ALL MAGICALLY COMES
TOGETHER:
AND IT IS UP.....THE
TREE IS 72 FEET TALL AND WAS GROWING FOR YEARS IN HAMILTON NEW JERSEY..NOT TOO
FAR FROM LES-KB2GBK.
ON DECEMBER 3RD THE
TREE GETS LIT...WE WILL BE THERE FOR "APPLE SLICES" PICTURES...WANT TO JOIN
US?
FROM
THE
WE NEVER KNEW
THIS
DEPARTMENT
FOR THOSE OF YOU WHO
LISTEN ON THE CLASSROOM NET YOU HAVE OFTEN HEARD ME RANT AND RAVE ABOUT NEWSDAY
OUR LOUSY NEWSPAPER...WELL EVERY ONCE AND A WHILE THEY REDEEM THEMSELVES LIKE
WITH THE FEATURE ARTICLE ABOVE...WE NEVER KNEW THAT THE WORLDS LARGEST
TRANSMITTING STATION IN 1921 WAS JUST A FEW MILES FROM CREW HQ...BUT IT WAS ...
ACCORDING TO WHAT IT SAYS AND WE KNOW YOU CANT READ THE FINE PRINT...THERE WERE
12 ORIGINAL TOWERS...412 FEET HIGH 1250 FEET APART AND NUMEROUS
BUILDINGS....PRES. WARREN G HARDING COMMENCED OPERATIONS FROM THE WHITE HOUSE ON
NOV 5 1921 BY PUSHING A BUTTON AND WHAT WAS CALLED "RADIO CENTRAL" WENT ON THE
AIR..IT WAS NOT ONLY THE LARGEST BUT THE MOST POWERFUL WIRELESS STATION ANYWHERE
IN THE WORLD...AND JUST A FEW MILES AWAY.... W O
W!!!
REMEMBER WHEN THE DOCTOR
THREW THE BIG SWITCH?
a.jpg)
THATS RIGHT! THE MONSTER
CAME TO LIFE AND THE TOWN JUST WAS'NT THE SAME!
WELL 7.238 IN THE MORNING
IS OUR TOWN AND WE NOW GOT OUR OWN DOCTOR!
*EVER WONDER WHY SOME
PEOPLE ARE ALWAYS LOUD.
*WHY WHEN THE BAND IS STONE
DEAD THEY ARE 20 OVER.
*HOW COME THE FOREIGN
BROADCAST NEVER COVERS THEM UP.
WHO'S SIGNAL DOES THIS
BRING TO MIND? DID I HEAR SOMEONE SAY ahhhhh whats his
name..that guy in north carolina-BARRY-KF4WGR?
THATS DOCTOR BARRY FROM NOW
ON BECAUSE HE HAS, YES, CREATED HIS OWN MONSTER:
IF SOMEDAY WE READ IN THE
CHARLOTTE OBSERVER THAT THE LOCAL MEDICAL SCHOOL IS MISSING A BRAIN WE WILL KNOW
THAT BARRY HAS GONE ONE STEP BEYOND.
SO NOW BOYS AND GIRLS YOU
KNOW THE ANSWER AS TO WHY SOME PEOPLE JUST SOUND SO DARN
GOOD!
HEY DONT FORGET TO ORDER UR CARDS FROM OUR PAL RANDY-KB3IFH....WHEN WE HANG A CARD HERE AT CREW HQ ITS GOTTA BE A REALLY NICE ONE....GET YOUR CARDS FROM RANDY AND GUARANTEED YOU WILL BE HUNG!
