@Rekkedge fond memories
CKLW beamed strong into the states during daylight hours
where were those stations??? never heard of em... but i am up in the Nprth East so...
They were a blowtorch station. Actually Windsor is what gave us 4 stations - ABC, NBC CBS, and the Canadian station CKLW TV channel
@ColdBrewedFreedom Detroit
WKNR Cleveland CKLW windsor
WABC nyc
WKNR was 100,000watts
About that time, out came the transistor radios. 9 volt battery with extending antenna and we were set
@Rekkedge Yeah... I used to listen to Seton Hall " Pirate Radio " because they always played bands no one ever heard of, like " St. Eve " She's bizzare, but good ! LOL
red ryder lunatic fringe...
@Rekkedgewow ....transistor. we come a long way
@ColdBrewedFreedom Doesn't Lunatic Fringe almost sound like Floyd is doin the song ?? Very similar sound.
yes similar
Whatever one must be careful of was "don't drop them" they would explode and then you needed to buy another
that tune makes me wanna break stuff...lol
@Rekkedge LOL I still have my Emerson 8 transistor ! I use it in the kitchen every morning. It STILL works !! 😂
@Rekkedge do you remember the CKLW jingle at the top of the hour?
@trooper411 My memory is pretty good, but not THAT good
I left Detroit area in 1973 though, so...
@Rekkedge oh man...let me jar your noodle...3-4 women in harmony sang "CKLW"
By 1973, we were listening to EFFFF EMMMM
Tom Cochrane was red ryder... what the hell else did end up in???
life is a highway
but what was the band???
Some underground station like "WABS"? or something like that where the DJ was stoned and played a wold side on an album
