Excerpt from Rfd Letter to Radio Farm Directors, From Radio and Television Service: September 1956; Letter No. 733-736
Ii you've wondered, consider James B. Frazier, rfdat icbst, Big Spring, Texas. He has 12 programs on radio and TV every week in Big Spring, is a string reporter for the Farm Bureau round-up that goes to 110 Texas stations once a week, and heads the Agra culture Department of Howard Junior College. He also farms and ranches acres of land. The reference Alice made to Old mcdonald last week brings this rejoinder from Highland Acres Farm, rfd 8, Lincoln, Neb. Bill Macdonald, Dir. Of kfab Farm Service, writes: I've been {arm broadcasting from out here for about eight years First show each day at a.m. Last one at pho Have my own weather instruments, a couple of telephone circuits, a radio broadcast wire, an AP printer in the basement and a good wife who says that had she known a bit earlier that she was marrying a radi station, things might have been different. She (the missus) has about 250 hybri layers I have my red hogs and we both have some good neighbors who help out on the field work a lot. We also have one horse he was here on pasture when we took the place and is a star boarder who delights in breaking down fences. And we have folks running in at all hours of the day (and nights too) making recordings or doing other silly things like news breaks when the short-wave thing doesn't work. Yes, we're also a receiving point for the mobile units since we're located out of the city interference area. Another rfd who uses farms for a regular part of his broadcasting is Jack Kroeck, hlik, Jefferson City, Mo. Jack owns and lives on the place and has the livestock, has a mike in the barn and one in the house. He has one of their three mobile units in a station wagon and does broadcasts direct from any farm he happens to be on. He says he has given Purebred Sale results going down the highway 50 miles an hour. He keeps two tape recorders with him all the time. That's one of the most mobile units we've heard of.
