CHRS Journal
The California Historical Radio Society (CHRS), is a non-profit educational corporation chartered in the State of California. CHRS was formed in 1974 to promote the restoration and preservation of early radio and broadcasting. Our goal is to enable the exchange of ideas and information on the history of radio, particularly in the West, with emphasis on collecting, preserving, and displaying early equipment, literature, and programs. Yearly membership is $30. CHRS Museum in Alameda CHRS has been fortunate to through the generosity of its donors to purchase a home for the CHRS museum and education center. It is located at 2152 Central Avenue. The building was built in 1900 as a telephone exchange. CHRS volunteers are actively restoring the building to make it optimal for use. Our goal is to create an environment to share our knowledge and love of radio and enable us to create an appreciation and understanding for a new generation of antique radio collectors and historians. ◊ Contact us: CHRS Chapter Chairmen CHRS, PO Box 31659, San Francisco, CA 94131 Eddie Enrique – Central Valley Chapter (415) 821-9800 – Sacramento Chapter www.CaliforniaHistoricalRadio.com Officers & Directors Staff Mike Adams – Chairman, Webmaster Robert Swart – Manager, Building Operations Steve Kushman – President, Radio Central Project Walt Hayden – Manager, Building Operations Manager Larry Drees – Manager, Landscaping Operations Scott Robinson – Vice President, Technical Ops.
