I encourage
you and your WTIC friends to consider getting involved in our museum.
Dues are $25 per year (tax deductible if you itemize) and members get
four issues per year of Dials and Channels, plus access to a whole lot
of interesting radio history materials digitized in the members only
section of our website. For example, Granville Klink was the
chief engineer at local station WTOP for half a century and kept a
scrapbook about everything that happened at the station. That
information can be browsed through on our website by members. We have
posted a complete set of the National Radio Institute's radio
correspondence course from 1937 which is great fun to read. All back
issues of Dials and Channels are available there in PDF form. Issues
have included articles about a number of historic radio stations in
addition to WTIC, e.g., WLW and WSB.
If you or any of your
colleagues are interested, you can download an application blank from
our website (ncrtv.org)
or pay on line via pay pal.
Even if you don't
join, if you like, I can put your email address on our list so
that you will receive information about things going on at the museum.
Please pay us a visit when you are in the Baltimore/DC area.
