NBC Master Control Room, 111 Sutter Street,
22nd Floor, San Francisco, ca. 1938.

Peck, George Greaves, Alan O'Neil, George McElwain, Guy Cassidy, Charles
Kilgore.
At this time, all West Coast network switching, Los Angeles to Seattle, was
done through this room. (Note the telegraph sounder at the edge of the
supervisor's desk. This connected with the KGO and KPO transmitters at Oakland
and Belmont.)
