FM105.1,
played host to a special NBS100.com
on September 21st,, as part of a Radio Broadcasting
Documentary & World Wide "Streaming" VOD Webcast,
commemorating the 100th year of Radio
Broadcasting
----"It
took one hundred years to prove that the Wireless Telephone
was radio, now it's part of television," --said entertainer
Troy Cory - of LookRadio. "Instead of our regular Concert
event that features dancing girls, this Troy Cory Show
consisted of the talented LookRadio staff (10 webcast
technicians and interviewers), and the staff DJs at The Surf
and K-mozart.
----This
historical, October 2, 2002 Los Angeles webcast is part of
six Wireless Telephone MPEG-4 telecasts that originated from
Washington D.C., Philadelphia, New York, Germany, China, and
from The Surf and K-Mozart in Los Angeles. All of the
segments will become part of the D-Diaries, and Stubblefield
Broadcast Documentary series for Public Television. The
Segments can be seen daily on Smart90.com/surfradio
-- or on LookRadio Channel
09 in MPEG-4, the
best of S90tv quality.
Radio Historians say
YES -- that Nathan B.
Stubblefield's 1902 wireless telephone broadcasts in
Washington, Philadelphia and New York were the world's
first. This is the 2002 message the family members of the
wireless telephone radio inventor and patent holder
(Patent
No. 887,657) are
attempting to instill in the minds of
broadcasters.
----
Commemorating the 100th year anniversary of radio has been
handicapped by the 9/11 attack, "but we've found that words
and music by Cole Porter and Sammy Faine, played by stations
like The Surf and K-Mozart, can help ease the pain", says,
Pete Allman, during his televised interview with Don
McCulloch, of Radio DeLuxe, the program director for The
Surf.
The Stubblefield
broadcast demonstrations use a handheld
smartphone called the "Handy", and a regular land line
telephone to transmit the radio / television wireless
signals across the web. The small "Handy™" -- replaces
the 3 foot tall oak cabinet that housed the original
wireless telephone in 1902.
----"Most
of the SURF Webcast was "filmed" without the use of video
tape or film by utilizing Philips'
new DVD RW unit,
LookRadio's S90tv;
and Smart
WebWorld
technology", said director Richard
Greninger.
----Wireless
Commentator Scott Stubblefield, revealed a few secrets about
the world's first telephone broadcast event conducted by his
great-grandfather Nathan B. Stubblefield, and published by
the Washington Post a 100 years ago. "At that time", Scott
said, "the wireless telephone could only broadcast voice and
music within a 3/4 of a mile radius. This time the wireless
telephone - the "Handy™" - was used to talk back and
forth across the full scope of the Internet. "It's a small
TV screen", continued Scott, "but it's part of the big
picture".
On hand to discuss
this event and the musical
joys of Stubblefield's magical invention were LookRadio
Celebrity Scene's Pete Allman and veteran radio hosts Don
McCulloch, John Regan, Mark Morris, and Nick Tyler, of Radio
Stations K-Mozart and K-SUR. The Surf is a new sound for
contemporary tastes, tailored to the sophisticated adult.
"It is a unique format that presents the best performances
of the greatest songs of all time. The Surf combines a mix
of old time favorite artists like Frank Sinatra, Tony
Bennett, Nat King Cole and Ella Fitzgerald with many new
contemporary artists
----"Clearly,
The Surf and K-Mozart, fill the niche of reaching out to the
big diverse community of Southern California and make
available to its listening audience the rich heritage of the
world's finest music", said Susan Forman, of The
Surf.
----The
producer of the historical Webcasts is Television
International Magazine / VRA TelePlay Pictures. Richard
Greninger and Troy Cory were the Segment Directors and Donna
Jeffries Segment Producer. Gary Sunkin, was TVI Camera
operator. Troy also directed the DVD webstreaming
activities.
----Webcast
Segment was video taped at THE SURF, 1500 COTNER AVENUE, LOS
ANGELES, CA 90025, USA. For more information about
