RE: WCAP To Replace Glenn Ordway With Howie Carr (Mark Watson)

Ah, the Bauer.

It outlasted the Museum of Cooling, CCA boards,  Major's, We Care About

a song circa 1973 off` the floor at an NAB convention where it had been
assembled, live, as a demonstration of how xmtrs could be built from a kit.
