>>>>Paul... this response has NOTHING to do with   your message.  But when 
I read in your subject line "SUDBURY" for  some reason the hair stood 
up on the back of my neck.  Maybe some of  you in my age range will 
remember,....   (this one Paul listed  is MA)   Wasn't it Sudbury, MD 
that had a station back in the  50's that probably had a help wanted 
ad in Broadcasting magazine at least  30 to 40 weeks of the year?

There were probably six to 10 stations back  then that most of us 
would NEVER send a resume to because the frequency  and tone of their 
ads were just scary!  And, Paul,  I'm thinking  one of them was in the 
town where YOU work  now.<<<<

I remember that's  station. I started reading Broadcasting in the 7th  
grade I asked for a copy for one of my birthdays ( seven bucks a year back  
then).
 
It was a mom and pop station I think the calls were WAMD and I thin  it  
was in Salisbury, MD. They wanted a first phone and you had to go out  and 
sell your own show. It was a 500 watt station directional.
 
 I always wondered what happened to that station the adds disappeared  a 
couple of years later.
 
Those were the days. Third phone and experience preferred.
