This is the US Station History section of
The Broadcast Archive

Last Update 5/26/08

This section is designed to focus on the stories and history of broadcasting in various US cities. 

We are always looking to "open" up more of the city history pages, but really need your help to do that. Can you share any information with us? Old books, magazine and newspaper articles, station promotional items ... all these are of interest. A scan, a photocopy, a text file of the current station lineups ... can you help? With the help of many folks who share information on theirs and other stations, this section will continue to grow.

An important note about this resource:

We have used many sources, including FCC files, university lecturers, historical publications and more, and have tried to be as accurate as possible, not repeating many of the myths of the industry (such as the Uncle Don Story) nor histories "manufactured" by promotion departments. However, I am not perfect, and may well have overlooked something. If you do see an error or omission, please let me know.

The accuracy and expansion of this resource depend upon our SHARING our efforts.
