Like many of us broadcast engineers, Bob Burnham built an audio mixer and started broadcasting from his parents’ basement. Indeed, if it weren’t for basements, garages, and kitchen tables we’d likely still be in the technology Dark Ages! Bob’s engineering experience ranges from a 10-tower AM directional station, through a few other AM directionals, FM stations, on-air work, and building studios at a broadcasting school. Plus, Bob founded BRC Broadcast Services, which offers Old Time Radio shows for nostalgic enjoyment – even if you’ve never heard these great shows before.
Show notes:
- BRC Broadcast Services and Old Time Radio shows
- For analog mic cable, Bob prefers Canare Star Quad cable.
- A good technical explanation of the Star Quad cable design
- Bob mentioned WHFR and points us to their live stream on the WHFR.FM website
