SUMMARY:From Palace Hotel to the Pacific: The Rise of Maritime Coastal Radio Station KPH
DESCRIPTION:Join us at Radio Central\, 2152 Central Ave.\, Alameda\, CA 94501 on October 11\, 2024 from 6:00 PM- 8:00 PM to learn about the Rise of KPH. \n  \nThe history of Maritime Coastal Radio Station KPH is also the history of the development of radio communications.\nKPH started as station “PH” at the Palace Hotel in San Francisco in 1905 and as radio communications technology developed the station followed that advancing technology until technology itself put KPH out of business.\nThis history presentation will be provided by Bill Ruck. Bill is a member of the Maritime Radio Historical Society and is active in keeping this station on the air. \nRSVP Here\nBill Ruck Biography \nBill Ruck is a Third-Generation Native San Franciscan and has always been interested in radio\, starting in grade school with the proverbial crystal set. He graduated to his father’s Hallicrafters SX-42 and quickly became a SWL staying up all night. He served in the U.S. Navy as an AT2. While still on active duty at NAS Alameda he started hanging out at radio stations including KJAZ.\nAfter his active duty\, Bill attended the adult Radio-TV Class at John A. O’Connell Vocational School in San Francisco. He became the Assistant Instructor until Proposition 13 eliminated adult programs.  He began working at KFOG as Engineering Manager in 1978. KFOG later added KNBR; and later more stations.  He also helped put KUSF on the air including assembling a composite 3 kW FM transmitter from parts.  Bill has always been interested in the history of radio. When recruited to join the KPH Project there was little arm-twisting involved because one of Bill’s high school friends worked there in the 70’s and they would hang out at the KPH receive site in Point Reyes.\nHe has been a member of the Maritime Radio Historical Society for almost 20 years which operates\, maintains\, and interprets historic Maritime Coastal Station KPH.  Today Bill still is active in broadcast radio\, radio communications\, and radio history.\nBill is a Fellow of the California Historical Radio Society in Preservation and inducted into the Bay Area Radio Hall of Fame. He is a member of CHRS\, IEEE\, SBE\, AES\, and AWA. He is the Chair of the Northern California Frequency Coordinating Committee. \nBill in front of the PW-15 Transmitter \n  \n\n				Email a link to a friend (Opens in new window)\n				Email\n			\n				Share on Facebook (Opens in new window)\n				Facebook\n			\n				Share on X (Opens in new window)\n				X\n			\n				Share on Bluesky (Opens in new window)\n				Bluesky\n			\n				Share on Mastodon (Opens in new window)\n				Mastodon\n			\n				Share on WhatsApp (Opens in new window)\n				WhatsApp

SUMMARY:Stan Bunger Book Signing Event
DESCRIPTION:Join us at Radio Central\, 2152 Central Ave.\, Alameda\, CA 94501 on October 25\, 2024 from 6:00 PM- 8:00 PM. \nMeet Stan Bunger and be the first to get a signed copy of his newly released book\, “Mornings with Madden.” \nMornings with Madden: My Radio Life with an American Legend- by Stan Bunger \nAn intimate and freewheeling portrait of John Madden through the NFL legend’s own words \nJohn Madden is synonymous with football. He was the television face and voice of the nation’s most popular sport\, the namesake of its best-selling sports video game\, and the man with the highest career winning percentage of any NFL coach. \n​Despite his international fame\, there was a side of Madden known only to those who listened to morning radio broadcasts in the San Francisco Bay Area. That’s where Madden grew up\, lived\, and died. It’s where for decades he found joy in a daily chat with his hometown radio station: a chance to unwind\, tell stories\, and impart his own brand of wit and wisdom. \nIn Mornings With Madden\, Stan Bunger—the man most often on the other side of the mic—illuminates this larger-than-life figure\, drawing upon memories of more than fifteen years of daily broadcasts\, backed up by thousands of recordings of those conversations. Readers who adored Madden’s football acumen and quirky personality on NFL broadcasts will get to know the father\, husband\, bad golfer\, dog owner\, lover of roadside diners\, and philosopher whose personality dominated our radio chats. \nFeaturing moving reflections alongside Madden’s own words\, this is a treasure trove of wry observations\, self-deprecating humor\, clear-eyed thinking about sports and society\, and the “Maddenisms” that endeared the legendary coach to millions. \nJoin CHRS welcoming Stan on October 25 from 6-8 PM.  This event is free to the public\, but please RSVP here so we will have enough books available for those who wish to purchase a copy. \n  \n  \n  \n\n\n				Email a link to a friend (Opens in new window)\n				Email\n			\n				Share on Facebook (Opens in new window)\n				Facebook\n			\n				Share on X (Opens in new window)\n				X\n			\n				Share on Bluesky (Opens in new window)\n				Bluesky\n			\n				Share on Mastodon (Opens in new window)\n				Mastodon\n			\n				Share on WhatsApp (Opens in new window)\n				WhatsApp
