MENZER VISITS PURDUE This is a story of a visit to WBAA, Purdue University. But first, let me SAY THAT IN MAKING THIS BRIEF REPORT, I AM PINCH-HITTING FOR JlM £BEL AND Frank Schooley who were unfortunate in not visiting Lafayette this year. If NAEB members have stopped over to visit WBAA, they know THEIR VISIT STARTS WHEN THE TRAIN ARRIVES AT THE STATION, JlM MlLES IS THERE TO SEE THAT YOU 1 RE TAKEN CARE OF EVERY MINUTE OF THE TIME. For THE SAKE OF HISTORY, WBAA WAS FIRST LICENSED ON April 7, 1922, AND OPERATED WITH A POWER OF 250 WATTS UNDER THE SUPERVISION OF THE ELECTRICAL Engineering Department, Some of you have visiteo that olo station and know HOW THE ENTIRE PLANT WAS CROV-OED INTO ABOUT FOUR HUNORED SQUARE FEET OF floor space. Under the leadership of Demon and ’’Gibbs” Williams, the station grew. Funds were made available for new equipment and quarters and now WBAA OPERATES WITH A POWER OF 5 KW DAY, I KW NIGHT ON A FREQUENCY OF 920 K/C. On July I, 1944, Jim Miles took over the job of Program Director and since THAT TIME WBAA HAS BEEN JlM MlLES. THOSE OF YOU WHO RECEIVE BULLETINS AND PROGRAMS FROM TIME TO TIME, KNOW THAT THINGS HAVE BEEN DEFINITELY LOOKING UP, BUT UNLESS YOU SPEND A DAY LISTENING TO BROADCASTS AND WATCHING OPERATIONS, YOU WILL NEVER REALIZE WHAT A SUPERB JOB JlM IS DOING. TO GET BACK TO THE PHYSICAL PLANT - STUDIOS AND OFFICES ARE LOCATED IN THE Hall of Music, a modern building housing one of the large university AUDITORIUMS. RADIO QUARTERS ARE LARGE, BUT LIKE MOST OF THE RAPIDLY sr:rr«S!7.r tt Ts: , :sw~
