John won, guys. Johnny, tell me. Hello, John. Oh, yes, Mr. Shaw. I call me old, so Paul is young. And if you had come, she would kill. Oh. Somebody shot her. You'll have to go to Los Angeles.
I'll book space by the way. I'll go to Los Angeles and show you can, and I'll give you the details. Show on the same when I'm here. We'll return to our post-annin' a moment. But first, I'd like to say a few words about jamming.
And I don't mean mothers, but here. During wartime, it has frequently been the practice of an enemy country through jam our radio communication. That is, to come into our broadcasting with broadcasting of their own, so that our radio messages cannot be received with any degree of clarity.
There was a time when our civilians radio broadcasts were jammed too, unintentional though it was. It was quite a mess, and still could be. Tell you imagine what would happen today if there was no coordination among our many radio and TV stations?
Or if the telephone companies didn't cooperate? When radio broadcasting first began in our country, each station shows its own call at a power and spark on the dial. It wasn't long before two or three stations would try to come in on the same spot, and the poor-less-nay couldn't understand the thing he heard.
So to get things organized, the Federal Communications Commission was born. Bison's food work issued to each station and to qualify an operating engineer. The same thing now applies to TV stations. Today, a radio or TV station may request certain call letters, and if no one else has them, the call letters are issued.
