TWiRT 418 - Radio Travelogue with Mark Humphrey
Friday, November 2, 2018 at 12:46PM
Wherever you travel there’s probably a radio station nearby. Mark Humphrey took some vacation time to travel out west, stopping on the way to visit a radio museum and radio and TV stations. Plus we talk about how FM translators are providing what’s essentially “Primary” service to one rural Pennsylvania valley.
