Presentation: "The History of Broadcast Radio"

[Larry Weil]

I thought this might be of interest to some of the people here:

>
>Marc Fisher, of the Washington Post, will be speaking in Andover on 
>Thursday, February 8, 2007 at 7:00 p.m at the Massachusetts School 
>of Law. The subject of Fisher's presentation will be the history of 
>broadcast radio based on his new book Radio, Rock and the Revolution 
>that Shaped a Generation . Fisher writes "The Listener," a radio 
>column in Post's Sunday Arts section.
>
>Ham Operators like Todd Storz, W9DYG,  were instrumental in keeping 
>broadcast radio alive when television was rapidly expanding, 
>according to Fisher. New technology would not wipe out an old media 
>and radio survived, ultimately changing itself and the nation. For 
>radio aficionados this book is a must read.
>
>The event is free and open to the public.
