Message-id: <01HXUYM0219Y8WWA0L@[removed]>

  My three favorite Space programs have been "Tom Corbett-Space Cadet",
"X-Minus-One", and "Space Patrol".I great was excited listening to them-
but even more so meeting 2 of the Tom Corbett stars (Frankie Thomas and
Jan Merlin) and Ed Kemmer (Space Patrol) several years ago.
  Speaking of premiums-the only thing I can recall in recent yearsthat
came close to a real radio premium was an offer made by Ovaltine to send
out a Captain Midnight-Secret Squadron Patch for a small amount of money
and an inner lining of Ovaltine. But that's been a couple of years ago.
What I'd love to get is a space gun from that [removed] were a lot nicer then
than what they make [removed],John Sexton (JSEXTON@[removed])

Message-ID: <[removed]@[removed]>

One old radio show haunts me since around 1950 (+/-3 yrs) when I first 
heard it. Can you name it for me?

It was a fantasy/mystery/suspense show and at the end when the show 
was resolved, some people were sitting on a porch on a hill and down 
below they heard a train whistle, but the train didn't exist, or the 
tracks had been taken up years ago, etc.

I would appreciate any pointers.

Thanks,

Michael

Subscribers to the Internet OTR Digest are, generally, a very helpful group.
You may find, however, that your question(s) have already been asked and
answered several times.  As in any newsgroup / mailgroup, it is advisable to
check the FAQ (list of Frequently Asked Questions) before posting.

For folks with WWW access, the OTR FAQ is posted at my site, as well as at
MIT and other FAQ repositories.

Hi All,

As far as I know, the Superradir II is not available. The only one you'll
find in the stores is the III. Which is better? I've heard the II is slightly
more sensitive. I have the III and it's almost as good as my $200+ Sony 
multi-band radio. The III is fine. Go for the one that looks the best for
you. I don't think you'll notice very much difference in performance between
the two.

Hi All,

First, thanks to all who responded to my request for info on science fiction
OTR. I got some info from Jim Widner that enabled me to complete an Exploring

     science fiction including Gordon Dickson, Robert Silverberg and others.
 
 
     List Comments:
 
     This list is based on a list supplied by Jim Widner. I have used his
     titles as the primary title.  Where a catalog gave a different title,
     I listed it immediately below the Jim's title.  
 
     Jim's information also included alternate and published titles. These
     will be below primary and source titles, preceded by "Alt:" for 
     alternate or "Pub:" for published.
 
     There were 4 titles in the catalogs that didn't match Jim's list. They
     are at the list end preceded by an "unmatched titles" line.
 
     No source had broadcast dates. Therefore the titles are currently in 
     alphabetical order.
