Awww, Dr Don D Rose. He was great. I can still hear the "610 KFRCeeee" jingle in my head. Do you happen to remember Pat McCormick and Charlie and Humphrey? Another favorite of mine.
Hey Lavender.. .Ohhh...Charlie and Humphry...sure do, Wow, what a blast from the past.. How bout' Creature Feature with...what was his name...Wilkens, Bob Wilkens.. Do you by chance remember the show that started with a clown driving a fire truck down the road waving, my younger brother was one of the studio kids on that
I loved Creature Feature with Bob Wilkins.. that was always fun to watch. I don't remember the program with the clown. I even tried Googling it, but I couldn't find it. How fun for your brother though. That reminds me of Romper Room with Miss Mary Ann. They filmed it in Oakland, and I always wanted to be one of the kids. Dialing For Dollars! My dad loved that show. Wow, I had forgotten all about that one.
I had to call my brother to ask...Hocus Pocus... The man who played him also was Santa Clause at Sant's Village.. Haha.."I see lavender and....." as she looked at her magic mirror
The very end, when he backs out of the drive way and the message appears, "Be Back Monday" seems vaguely familiar to me. Looks like a great, retro show though.
FM = Frequency Modulator, I think. I don't know how it works but it got rid of a lot of static from lightning and improved reception in tunnels, parking garages etc. I google it and come back with the complete, correct answer.
Sure I remember that. We used to listen to Uncle Larry Lujack on WLS radio in Chicago. Oh and I can't forget Chicken Man aka Benton Harbor ... WCFL in Chicago!
I think there has been FM since 1940 or so. My parents sometimes listened to show music and classical in stereo in the 1960s. I probably did not listen until I left home in the mid 70s and got with people who liked it.
A more apt question would now be does anyone remember AM radio?
