	Two more names have come to me, having been reminded by several about
Edgar Bergen.
	Tommy Riggs and Betty Lou (like a female McCarthy or Teeny), and (was
this already mentioned?) Candy Candido on the Durante show -
"I'm  feelin' MIGHTY LOW".

Mystery Theater held me spell bound as a kid and I would love to listen 
to a station that still broadcast episodes. Or one better, I'd like to 
be able to purchase copies of the episodes to enjoy with my son, who is 
at the perfect imaginative age.

Help me find that magic again!

Hi all.

I don't know what the schedule for 13 by Corwin is in the
rest of the country, but in the DC area, #1 played last
Sunday.

It's called "The Undecided Molecule," it's all in rhyme,
it stars Groucho Marx as a judge, and (all that follows
is MHO) it was quite clever.

I thought Groucho took a while to get into his role; he
seemed a little wooden at the beginning.  The premise
and story were unique and more than a little strange: a
molecule that didn't want to be what it's supposed to be;
it wanted to choose something (a career?) instead.

I think it's worth at least two separate listens: one
to catch the story, and one to enjoy the rhymes.  He had
some real winners, and some real stretches.  The amazing
thing (to me) about Corwin is that he didn't take a month
or six to turn these things out.

I anxiously await #2.

        I have considered buying this but haven'y actually bought it [removed]
A home AM transmitter.  There are two methods of broadcasting in the home -
one is carrier-current transmitter (which uses the your house's electrical
wiring as a kind of "antenna".  Whatever house outlet you plug it into is
where it will work within the confines of your house).  The other option is
as a regular non-carrier (conventional) transmitter, but due to stringent
FCC regulations, the range is somewhat limited (only 100 feet).
Tranmitting crystals are available in order to broadcast on specific
frequencies left open or available in your area (here in NY, we have very
few, but offered are 540, 560, 600, 700, 800, 900, 1080, 1120, 1350 and
1400 Khz).  It's a bit pricey (which is why I am still deciding if I really
need it - $175 but it is all assembled).
The name of the company is Low Power Radio, 2122 Marconi Avenue, St. Louis, MO
63110; phone 314-664-7080.  If anyone knows of any transmitter kits
available, that is the better way to [removed] FCC apparently has stricter
rules governing sale and use of already-asssembled transmitters, but not as
strict or stringent regarding kits (I guess they consider it just
unassembled parts)...

Also -- in an earlier posting I mentioned Taft Electronics.  Here is the
address:  68 West 45th Street, New York, NY 10036.  Phone 1-800-343-1075
(212-575-5194)  Fax:  212-713-0992.  S & S Audio is just down the street
from these people, I think.

Yes, Rege Cordic was in Pittsburgh until 1964.  He left following his
fabulous "Pittsburgh Bridge-Leap Contest" which honored the people who in
altered states of consciousness had driven their cars off the (in)famous
"Bridge to No Where."

Ron Abrams is right: he was one of the most inspired radio personalities
EVER.  Nothing was sacred, from the Pirates to the Pols.  His antics
enlivened Pittsburgh as no one had.  After inventing a Pittsburgh sport --
brickthrow -- and creating a pantheon of brickthrow masters led by Buffy
Budekovich, he and his co-conspirators created a Life magazine parody called
Thud, the magazine of brickthrow.  It's still funny 36 years -- gasp! --
later.

So please, anyone out there with tapes, let me hear from you.
