WAR OF THE WORLDS

[Upsidemedia]

Out of curiosity, since I used to live in Wayne, does anyone know where in the town the transmitter might have been? It was a rural town back then, that developed mostly post-war except for farms and summer communities. But, I can think of a few spots that might have been ideal.

So we are left with the question of which WABC was in Bound Brook (even though neither station had the WABC calls at that time) and which WABC was in Wayne (even though neither station had the WABC calls at that time, either).
