Some of the more interesting moments that I spent in the WGSF mobile production van did not involve a production. My wife, Dorothy, and I flew to Salt Lake...
After all these years it's great to know this fine group of broadcasting pioneers is still around. Funny how Dan Black and Jeff Campbell wound up working...
If I remember correctly that mobile truck was a God send for the station, even with it's idiosyncrasies'. It's great to see it is being restored and preserved....
Unless there was another maple sugar camp taping I wasn't around for, that was the infamous blue truck that got stuck after going about 1 and 1/2 truck lengths...
I was very sorry to hear about Phil. I ran into him several times while he was at the Dispatch and for those of you who remember him, he had definitely changed...

Dorothy and I spent the week after Thanksgiving in Charlotte, NC, volunteering for Operation Christmas Child. Our group of 107 people (2 bus loads) went to...
There was some question last year about Jimmy Allen's address. We got the usual early card this year. Also, I saw him this summer, and they haven't moved. Mr H...
Greg, Believe or not your name has come up in conversation occasionally over the years. Gone over the speed limit in a Corvette recently? Actually it is Jeff...
Well, we did a show on a maple sugar camp at a farm down in Perry County. I don't remember who all was there, though John was. It was a nice day, the drive was...
I believe a lot of TK30s and TK31s had the ports in the sides with screen over them. I have seen it on a number of them. The camera that was used for the flip...
Dan, I hope your conversations about me were positive. :=) Nope haven't gone over the speed limit in a very long time. It has to do something with getting...
Much to Mr. H's chagrin I have never been a ham. One transmitter at Sheridan is a two-year old Harris solid-state digital transmitter. The other is a 1982...
... Can't say that I didn't try! I had a few successes - more after operations moved to the high school. Somehow Fred Rose (Ind. arts teacher) set up an...

Let's see how good you folks are at research What are the current call letters or station identification of the channel 34 to channel 31 translator on Horn's...
If OEB doesn't make the investment to digitize the translator, they may put in a digital receiver and an analog modulator and continue to run analog for a few...
It is amazing what you can find by 'Googling'! http://www.brainyhistory.com/days/march_18.html Scroll all the way to the bottom . . . . Mr H March 18 Events in...
VERY GOOD! Greg. Go to the head of the class. It is amazing what information is available on the web - if you know how to phrase the question. Mr H Greg...
I will send this in two parts - it is long. Additional comments and corrections are welcome. What are your memories of the transmitter? Those of you who moved...
