[78-L] Blues on the radio

Two questions:

(1) Is it possible to say when a (black) vocal blues record was played 
on the radio for the first time, and where?
(2) Who hosted the first radio show entirely devoted to (black) vocal 
blues, any country, any language?

ahh, and another question:
(3) How did European blues enthusiasts during the 20s and 30s most 
likely know about "race records" - direct exposure while traveling in 
the States, or sailors calling on European ports, or through importers 
and distributors of US products, or ??
