Books About Radio listening in the USA

"Something in the Air"  by Marc Fisher

Lots of good stories about the development of music and radio's Rock and Roll era through the 90's.  Easy to read and in a humorous style.





Early radio broadcasting in America in the 20's and 30's.  Lots of good history of radio and the country during this period.


Listening In  by Susan Douglas

More of a sociological treatment than the others AND talks a LOT about hams as an influence on early radio.

Paul,

I just recently learned that a local ham and friend streams Old Time Radio at: http://radio1610.us

It is a fun listen.
