I remember being a kid and loving to tune into AM radio stations states away at night when they could come through after so many local stations signed off. Chicago, New Orleans, and many others here in the eastern US.
Me too.
We listened to radio preachers mostly..............
WKBW Buffalo, NY.
WWVA Wheeling, WV.
WCKY Cincinatti, OH on a radio in a ‘51 Chevy in York County, PA.
Those old vacuum tube radios really pulled in the stations. The transistor ones just don’t do it like the oldies did.
