The Old New Brunswick, New Jersey Marconi Company Wireless Station,. courtesy
In 1919 the facility joined the newly organized
Radio Corporation of America (RCA)
as station WII under the World Wide Wireless logo.
Broadcast pioneer, RCAs David Sarnoff
is seen here in 1921, accompanied by
some legendary scientists.

When I was 15,
the boy next door
was obsessed. . . .
with RADIO.
He had a weak 'pirate' station
from which we broadcast
to NO listeners around the block.
When he got an intern-ship
at the local Public Radio Station
I started hanging out there.
As I recall, I drove to
Woodstock
with one of the engineers.
I was 16.
Eventually I learned a bit,
producing a small segment
in a community based show
for which I interviewed
and edited the interviews.
I remember cutting
recording tape
with a razor blade,
then splicing it together.
During my one year of college
I had a show late at night.
Sunday, I joined Carroll Cox

on his broadcast.

and cheerfully
has left a hopeful impulse
behind it in the world,
and bettered the
