> My Paramount DVD of the 1953 film of WOTW (Special collector's edition) has what appears to be the complete 1938 radio broadcast in correct pitch/speed and excellent noise- free sound as one of the special features of the DVD. Compared to other versions I've heard this restoration is near miraculous. However, the fast forward. pause and reverse functions would not operate while playing the show on my current vintage DVD player, a major inconvenience easily solved with an external audio recorder. I purchased the DVD in 2006 and do not know if the currently available DVDs still contain the show as a special feature.

> Hi,Of 93 people sampled who listened to both shows, 58 tuned out of Chase and Sanborn at the same time. If Chase and Sanborn was a very popular show, then I'd say that survey does point to quite a lot of people total (and has a margin of error of whatever).What hard evidence is there that doesn't support the tuneout story?Joseph Scott[...]The only actual support for the "tuneout" story is in Hadley Cantril's book -- which, in turn, is based on a personal survey he performed after the broadcat. He sent out 846 survey cards to people who had heard at least part of the Welles broadcast. 518 cards were returned, and of those, 18 percent of those said they had also heard part of the Chase & Sanborn program. Sixty-two percent of that 18 percent said they had tuned out of Chase & Sanborn at the conclusion of Bergen's first routine -- which led into Lamour's song. That's all the hard evidence that exists for the tuneout story -- and if you do the math, it doesn't come to an awful lot

> When someone says "transcription" to me, I always think of 16" instantaneous" lacquer over aluminum base [glass during WW2] recordings made in a radio station. These were almost always 33 1/3 rpm 3mil or 1mil grooved discs that played for up to either 15 minutes or 30 minutes per side, a nice capability for radio broadcast. Many were pressed into vinyl and used by NBC, CBS, ABC etc. for distribution of radio shows across the country when the show couldn't be broadcast simultaneously nationwide to every market.

> I have no information on why these were made, I do know that Bing worked with Jack Mullen and Ampex to get his show distributed on early tape recordings. He advertised on this show the Philco "Bing Crosby" slide-in radio phonograph, probably the model 46-1201. [I own the later model 49-1401 with the "boomerang" speaker deck.]

> When I watched the movie LAURA years ago, I was always impressed by the scene where Laura is listening to her crazed killer-to-be Waldo on the radio, as a reassurance that he isn't stalking her. As the broadcast ends, he suddenly appears at Laura's bedroom door, and we hear the radio announcer intone, "The voice of Waldo Lydecker has been brought to you by electrical transcription." Shocking!
