AN IMPORTANT ANNOUNCEMENT
UPDATE!
Thanks to the efforts of the
California Historical Radio Society,
its amazing corps of volunteers and its fearless
leaders, Steve Kushman and Mike Adams, the Bay
Area Radio Museum and Hall of Fame will continue
to exist as a major component of CHRS.
I hope to restore as much of the
audio and as many of the online exhibits to the
museum website over the next few weeks. We did
receive an unexpected (but greatly appreciated)
gift from our hosting company — unlimited
bandwidth for an unspecified period, which may
mean several months or several years. Either
way, bandwidth expenses have been probably the
greatest drain on the museum's financial
resources over the past five years, and this
news is most welcome.
 In the meantime, if you can
contribute financially to the museum in any
amount,
please click here to go to our
donations page. A few dollars or a few hundred
dollars are equally important, and are
gratefully accepted (as well as being
tax-deductible).
If you have the skills and the
time to volunteer to help out on this project,
we need you now! If you can help digitize old
reel-to-reel and cassette tapes or 16"
transcription discs; if you can assist in
researching and writing articles for the museum
website; if you can pitch in by interviewing the
men and women who worked (or are working in) Bay
Area radio; or if you can help to scan, classify
and catalog the recordings, documents,
photographs and other ephemera that we've
collected over the years, please get in touch
with us. Contributing even a few hours of your
time each month is priceless!
My sincere thanks and gratitude
to Steve Kushman, Mike Adams, the members of the
California Historical Radio Society, as well as
Ben Fong-Torres, Darryl Compton, Peter
Cleaveland and the board of directors of
Broadcast Legends for their generous
and unwavering support of this project, and for
their encouragement not only over the past
several years, but over the recent weeks as
well. David
