Subject: RE: Help: WWVA Wattage In The Late 1950s
I used the term 'country' rather loosely. Art is more precise, and some of it was even folk. 50,000 watts was the legal limit in the U.S. for (AM) radio stations at that time. Wasn't Bradley Kincaid one of those sometimes on WWVA? (I don't have his published book of old songs), it's been so long ago that my memory of it is getting pretty dim. Dick Spottswood of WAMU would know, but he doesn't come here.
