Title: W1TAV 50,000 Watts of AM (Sort of) Post by: W1TAV on December 07, 2012, 12:11:12 PM Just having a little fun at WBZ Boston yesterday, courtesy of fellow HAM W1DJG, broadcast engineer for the radio side of 'BZ. He didn't let me hit the PTT! :)

Should have gotten some of the air talent to make some celebrity ID's for TAV Radio. I miss listening to Steve LeVeille as I drive into work in the mornings. There was something about his down-to-earth interaction with callers, and the sound of his voice on the massive blowtorch WBZ AM signal strapping down the coast to me this time of year. My generation's Larry Glick, really. If you know, you know. http://bostonradiowatch.blogspot.com/2012/06/wbzs-overnight-host-steve-leveille-is.html (http://bostonradiowatch.blogspot.com/2012/06/wbzs-overnight-host-steve-leveille-is.html) Title: Re: W1TAV 50,000 Watts of AM (Sort of) Post by: w1vtp on December 07, 2012, 07:13:46 PM Yeah! Got sit in the saddle! Haven't heard you on much lately. The 75A2 gets a daily exercise
