Indianapolis Radio Schedule


For historical accuracy I have left in the designation for kilocycles!
WXLW - daytimer with a directional antenna. When I was young I didn't know anything about directional antennas, so I could never understand why I couldn't hear this station where I lived!
WIBC - 50,000 watts, dropped power to protect the 1-A station out west (KNX).
WISH - rock and roll station, CBS affiliate.. Dick Summer eventually went on to WBZ, Boston and better things.
WIRE - NBC affiliate. WGEE was a country station, ABC affiliate.

Wednesday, October 30, 1957
