OTR Newsletter Created

OTR, the noncommercial, electronic newsletter for folks who enjoy
collecting and listening to Old Time Radio programs is proud to
announce the acceptance of charter subscriptions.

OTR was founded after discussion in Usenet newsgroups and email
exchanges, indicating the desire of a number of Usenet users to have a
forum dedicated to the hobby of listening to nostalgic radio
programming.

               Some of the anticipated topics include:

             Lists of AM radio stations broadcasting OTR.
               Lists and critiques of OTR tape vendors.
             Contents of personal libraries / collections.
               Offers to privately exchange recordings.
           Critiques of individual or serialized programs.
       Discussions about radio dramas / mysteries / adventures.
         Hints on re-recording and preserving audio quality.

                      -o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-

If you fondly reminisce about some of the programs you heard during
the "golden age of radio", would like to learn more about programming
