About the book >.>.> It has become habit for me to scan rather than read manuscripts. After five decades in the craft, I instincti…vely judge a work by its heft, paragraphing and punctuation. Not so with Welcome South, Brother, the history of WSB, Atlanta. It's a fascinating account of this pioneer station and its parent company, Cox Broadcasting Corporation. WSB became the South's first radio station in 1922-just two years after KDKA, Pittsburgh, had been given the first "regular" (as op- posed to experimental) call letters. It was licensed to the distinguished Atlanta Journal, which beat its competitor, the Constitution, to the radio punch. That was in the days when radio receivers, called consoles, sold for up to $700; when news- papers promoted "kits" to coax readers to make their own cat's whiskers, oatmeal box, earphone receivers. Only the carriage trade could afford the Kolsters or the gooseneck-speaker Atwater Kents of that era. I recall that, in 1926, when I began writing a syndicated radio colum.
