When did commercial radio programming begin?

The debate over the first licensed commercial radio station has been going on for years, and is something of a standing joke, but one of the very first - if not the first (and it may have been) is KDKA radio in Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania, which went on the air on November 2, 1920.


How do you start amateur radio?

start off with an internet radio station. use caster beta, download the software it tells you to download, (although keep in mind SAM BROADCASTER is expensive, hard to run, and is outdated) and you got yourself a radio station. forget about wave radio, you will need a licence and it takes several years education in engineering to be able to pull it off. but did i mention caster beta was free?


How do radio stations monitor number of listeners?

Radio ratings come from a service called Arbitron which has been ranking radio stations for years. The specific methods they have used have changed over the years, but it basically involves conducting radio surveys among different types of people in various regions of a listening area, and then using the results of the surveys to determine what percentage of the population is listening to a specific station, and at what times. As a very simplistic example of how it works, if they survey 100 people in Brooklyn, NY and 10 of them listen to the oldies station regularly, they can therefore draw the conclusion that 10% of the population in Brooklyn listens to the oldies station regularly. I've always found the whole Arbitron system to be flawed due to the fact that it's really only a guessing game and the majority of actual radio listeners are never really asked about their radio preferences. I could go out and convince every single person in my entire town to start tuning in to a new radio station, and the station could get thousands of new listeners just in my town, but if no one in my particular town gets surveyed by Arbitron, the station's ratings will not go up at all.


What radio station is Kevin brown on now?

As of May 2014, Kevin Brown is not with any particular radio station. He was with KBLX for a total of 22 years prior to his removal. I don't know of any station that he's on at this time, but I will say this, I hope that CBS' KTWV in Los Angeles will open up their eyes and get a well proven air talent "cousin" Kevin Brown the Morning spot at this station. A great personality, humor and knows the music well. Nothing against Pat Prescott, but after 10 years doing mornings at KTWV and the needle hasn't moved up, it time to put her into a different time slot or you know what.


Can you call someone a dick on the radio?

A lot of radio has turned into such garbage in recent years that it happens every day. Of course, it's gonna make you sound like worse crap than the person you're putting down, and it makes the radio station sound like trash, but if you have some kind of a driving need to run yourself and everybody else down in public, then there's sure to be a station near you where you can get away with it. On the other hand, if you're asking because you heard somebody else do it, if I heard it on one of the stations I listen to, I'd complain to the station's managers, and especially to their advertisers.

Where did the quote 'the phrase that pays' come from?

This phrase has been used at many radio stations for many years. It is impossible to determine which radio station used it first.


Can a radio station urge listeners not to shop in certain businesses if the business pulls his advertising off the radio station?

I can't help you with the question of whether "legally" they can, but speaking from 22 years experience on the radio...it would never happen. Advertisers are the station's customer. If they choose to pull their advertising, that's bad news, but hopefully not the end of the relationship. We would hope to do business again someday. Can they? Probably not. Would they? No.

What radio station number plays Linkin Park?

Radio station do not give much airtime to Linkin Park nowadays like they used to earlier. However you can still listen to their older songs being played on some rock radio stations occasionally. Also I remember that the song "War" from their previous album was played a lot on Metal and Punk stations. iTunes also used to have Linkin Park only online radio station a few years back but I am not sure if they still exist as I haven't listened to that station from too long.

Was the radio invented in 1966?

Right!-- In 1920, there were enough people with receiving sets that a radio station was builtto broadcast music and news to them. (KDKA in Pittsburgh.)-- In 1912, a ham radio operator named David Sarnoff received the radio distress callfrom the Titanic, as it was sinking.-- In 1895, Marconi sent his first radio signals across town.-- Experiments were done with radio for 30 years before that.Gee whiz! This contributor had his ham license for 10 years by 1966.
