2008: ANOTHER TOM GLOVER WEBSITE

I HAVE JUST STARTED ANOTHER WEBSITE DEDICATED TO BOTH BROADCAST AND AMATEUR RADIO. AS WA2RVU, AN AMATEUR RADIO LICENSE HOLDER SINCE THE EARLY 1970'S I HAVE MET MANY WONDERFMPUL "HAMS" WHO HAVE MADE A LASTING IMPRESSION ON ME. MY INTEREST IN BROADCAST RADIO GOES BACK TO MY VERY EARLIEST CHILDHOOD. NOW IN MY MID 70'S MY GROWING COLLECTION OF OLD RADIO PROGRAMS ON MP3 LET ME ONCE AGAIN HEAR THE MUSIC OF GLENN MILLER, THE EXCITEMENT OF "THE SHADOW" AND "HOP HARRIGAN," AND THE WIT OF JEAN SHEPHERD, MY VERY FAVORITE SATIRIST.

THANKS TO EUGENE BERGMANN FOR VISITING MY NEW WEBSITE, BUT MORE THANKS FOR CORRECTING MY MIS-SPELLING OF JEAN SHEPHERD. (I SPELLED HIS LAST NAME "SHEPARD.") THANKS FOR CORRECTING ME, EUGENE AND THANKS FOR TAKING THE TIME TO WRITE.

MR. EUGENE BERGMANN WROTE:

Good to see that you will be commenting on broadcast radio and ham radio, especially on Jean Shepherd (note spelling). My book about his work, EXCELSIOR, YOU FATHEAD! THE ART AND ENIGMA OF JEAN SHEPHERD was published 3/2005.
Excelsior!

  2. Ah, listening to Jean Shepherd meander away from his theme, I'd wonder if he'd be able to wind it up on time and on topic. He never failed! His "war" stories about Fort Monmouth were funny, but the steel mill stories were my favorites.
