[BC] AM Stereo and Leonard Kahn

[Mark Humphrey]

Two names are being confused here.  The stereo system which employed
an FM subcarrier for L-R wasn't proposed by Crosley, but by Crosby --
Murray Crosby.

The FCC decision favoring the Zenith/GE system over Crosby's can be
found on Harold's website:

For the unwashed, the "Powell Crosley" method of stereo was two radios, sometimes in one box. The left channel was on AM and the right channel was on FM. Of course this meant that AM only had half of the performance and FM the other.
