You must have an acrobat reader installed to access this link. "Radio Doings" -- October 25, 1924. It is interesting to compare the early days of radio with today. Note: Station locations are listed in meters. To convert meters to MHz, divide the frequency in meters into 300. For example: on page 25, they show KGO - Pacific Broadcasting Station is at 312 meters. That converts to 0.961 MHz or 961 KHz. KGO is now located at 810 KHz or 370 meters. |
