More about the book
The evolution of Columbus radio is chronicled through the innovative efforts of two professors and a preacher who transformed classroom experiments into a broadcasting phenomenon. By 1922, stations like WEAO and WJD were established, leading to the emergence of WMAN, which catered to local audiences. The narrative highlights the distinct paths of key stations: WEAO, later WOSU, became a leader in educational broadcasting; WMAN evolved into WCOL, dominating audiences in the 1960s; and CBS affiliate WBNS maintained a strong local presence for decades. The book features illustrated stories of both prominent and lesser-known stations.
