  • Minnesota's-First Radio Station Was 9SV, Owned and Operated by 19-Year
    "Minnesota's-first radio station was 9SV, owned and operated by 19-year-old Robert Witschen, who broadcast phonographic music in 1920 to the few who could pick it up on their cat's whiskers sets. Schilpin hired Witschen in 1922 to build a station and give the Times a voice, WFAM. But the lack of advertisers---due to a lack of listeners with sets---forced the station to close down five years later. When Schilpin decided to try again in 1938, Witschen became the Chief Engineer for KFAM (the original call letters had been taken over by another station, and Schilpin's second choice, KSTC was, according to the FCC, too similar to St. Paul's KSTP).” KFAM-AM came on the air in 1938 and KFAM- FM was added a decade later…among the pioneer FM stations in Minnesota. ST CLOUD THE TRIPLET CITY JOHN DOMINIK 1983 Radio in Minnesota Radio in Minnesota, as in other parts of the country, began with experimental broadcasts in the 1910s. These often originated in the physics or engineering departments of colleges and universities. The University of Minnesota made its first radio transmissions in 1912, and in 1915 broadcast an entire football game with a spark gap transmitter. The University received a license for experimental station 9XI in 1920. Similar stations at St. John’s University and St. Olaf College also began during this period. Station 9XI at the University of Minnesota eventually was replaced by WLB, which became the state’s first licensed AM station on Jan. 13, 1922 (twenty three years later WLB would change its call letters to KUOM).

  • “The Stories Behind the Songs”
    “The Stories Behind The Songs” John Henderson The Stories Behind The Songs A compilation of “inside stories” behind classic country hits and the artists associated with them John Debbie & John By John Henderson (Arrangement by Debbie Henderson) A fascinating and entertaining look at the life and recording efforts of some of country music’s most talented singers and songwriters 1 Author’s Note My background in country music started before I even reached grade school. I was four years old when my uncle, Jack Henderson, the program director of 50,000 watt KCUL-AM in Fort Worth/Dallas, came to visit my family in 1959. He brought me around one hundred and fifty 45 RPM records from his station (duplicate copies that they no longer needed) and a small record player that played only 45s (not albums). I played those records day and night, completely wore them out. From that point, I wanted to be a disc jockey. But instead of going for the usual “comedic” approach most DJs took, I tried to be more informative by dropping in tidbits of a song’s background, something that always fascinated me. Originally with my “Classic Country Music Stories” site on Facebook (which is still going strong), and now with this book, I can tell the whole story, something that time restraints on radio wouldn’t allow. I began deejaying as a career at the age of sixteen in 1971, most notably at Nashville’s WENO-AM and WKDA- AM, Lakeland, Florida’s WPCV-FM (past winner of the “Radio Station of the Year” award from the Country Music Association), and Springfield, Missouri’s KTTS AM & FM and KWTO-AM, but with syndication and automation which overwhelmed radio some twenty-five years ago, my final DJ position ended in 1992.

  • Broadcasting Faith: Regulating Radio from the New Era to the American Century
    Broadcasting Faith: Regulating Radio from the New Era to the American Century David A. Noell Submitted in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy Under the Executive Committee of the Graduate School of Arts and Sciences COLUMBIA UNIVERSITY 2020 © 2020 David A. Noell All Rights Reserved Abstract Broadcasting Faith: Regulating Radio from the New Era to the American Century David A. Noell Between 1927 and 1987, American broadcast regulators undertook a project for radio. The project pursued multiple goals: to allocate wavelengths, to hold stations accountable to the public interest, to restrict prejudicial content, to protect domestic wavelengths from international signal interference, to sustain these policies over time with the advent of new media, and to evangelize the American way of life abroad. The Federal Communications Commission (FCC) and the State Department, as the primary institutions responsible for developing this American system of radio, addressed several challenges. Domestically, the FCC resolved the free speech questions of the time by resisting government ownership of radio stations, but regulating the airwaves in the “public interest, convenience, and necessity.” Internationally, the State Department set up radio stations to broadcast around the world. Religion played a primary role in the aims of this project - domestically, that every listener would receive uplifting faith content and internationally, that the world would know of American religiosity. Public utility law precedent was influential on the 1927 Federal Radio Act and its implementation. The Commission treated radio as if it were a public utility. In this way, it ruled that the listener took precedence over the broadcaster - specifically that all listeners had a right to a well-rounded programming lineup, including religious content.
