My friends and I use to go to the Zanzibar on William Street, I have met Little Richard there twice. George Lorenz was a fabulous D J. One time my friends and myself went up to Saranac lake in my 1950 Studebar and we were camped out sleeping in tents. We ran copper electrical wire from a tree to the antena of the car to catch the Hound Dog on KB. Another time we went down to Melbourne Florida to visit some school friends of ours that had just moved there, we got KB down there also. Awesome the radio put out 50,000 watts. Also use to get KB when I went to College at Paul Smiths. Paul Smiths N Y in the Adirondacks. So many of my class mates from N Y City and,VT,NH and Mass. also knew about KB and tuned into it. Good old days. Hans.
