5/5 based on 1 review.

It all started in 1907 when a 7 year old boy named Harold Thomas emigrated to the USA and settled in the Providence, RI area. ... See more When Harold reached his early teens he became fascinated with the brand new medium called Radio. He got hold of a WWI Navy Radio Set and after the War converted it into a small Radio Transmitter. Nobody except the sailors aboard ship at the Newport Naval Station could hear his broadcasts - but Harold entertained them by exchanging wise- cracks with them. He would even run errands for them when, replying to his broadcasts, they would radio their wants to him. Harolds first job for his small transmitter came in 1920. It took place the night of the Dempsey-Firpo fight. Few people had receivers in those days , so a RI dancehall advertised that patrons could hear the fight between the dances. Harold received his first $50.00. ------ Shows: 1320 First News, Carosello Musicale Italiano, Coffee Break, Dee Patterson, Good Time Oldies, Solid Gold Rock and Roll Party, Special Edition Saturday, Swapshop, Talk Of The Town, The Music Museum, The Sophie Zembruski Show, Tom Chute And You, Tom Graves, Vinnie Banda Show, Your Inside Connection ----- Hosts: Carlo Magno, Mario Grietti, Tony Magno, Barbara Davitt Davitt, Dee Paterson, Tom Chute, Frank Marro, Laura Ingraham, Jack Ellery, Bert Baron, Trish Torello, Clif Desmond, Larry Rifkin, Laurie Hoxie, John Gibson, Tom Graves
