In the 70s, you could probably get a CB radio for your bike. CBs were everywhere back then.

I found an old-timey bulb horn and I've been scaring the crap out of my cat with it. It was probably once attached to a bike like that.

I should stop. She's pretty alarmed.

I hope that you will post the schematics and parts list for the bike radio so that listeners who want to receive your broadcast while riding bikes can build this project. Reminds me of the Cub Scout build a radio project I completed in 1961. I'm about ready to take on the challenge once again.

Jack: Yes! I bought a dozen or so in iTunes because I love the composition. One of them -- by a big-name jazzbo whose name escapes -- was kinda lame. Otherwise, it's almost foolproof, like Caravan.

Arthur C. Miller's other invention, the beer-keg radio, would be a great novel addition to the WFMU break room or the backstage of Monty Hall.

Thanks, Ken from Hyde. Looks like a regenerative design. Can someone explain to me why the volume control is biasing the screen in the 1st audio stage?

I've been away from the radio for a little bit and "Don't Cross the Street" has been stuck in my head the whole time. Imagine a time when advertisers and broadcasters actually cared about the safety of kids who live in the city, and you get some idea how old that PSA is.

@carmichael I couldn't leave OK for CA quickly enough. Now in WV I almost remonis fondly for OK. Sacramento mid-town is getting downright nasty....what's up with that? Are the K street bars really that good or is the mall violence related to rotten local talent?

It's an outstanding exposition of the detailed & ambiguous realities & yet also the powerful enduring emotional bonds of actual relationships...even especially ones that fail.

I agree Ike, especially in a downpour, that episode was indescribably poignant.

Some relationships can end and still be considered a success. Some can even fail and still be a success. Probably none of Joe's relationships, though. Heh.
Avatar 5:06pm
Revolution Rabbit Nov63:

Good Ike.
...I mean seriously: I'm not especially cultured - but for all the stuff there is about romance & relationships - that Joe Frank's particularly observationally descriptive, & so moving...
  🎸 Swag For Life Member 5:09pm
Faustcan:

To the lovers of this Joe's story may I recommend something that I read in Russian with original title in French La Modificacion by Michel Butor. An incredibly slow but gripping unravelling of the protagonist's train journey to reunite with his mistress for good - all taking place in his head...
