More about the Call
Book |
The Callbook was two
issues per year from
inception to the end
of 1925, in the form
of "Spring" and
"Fall" issues. In
1926 and 1927, the
Callbook was 3
issues per year:
Spring (Mar), Fall
(Sep) and Winter
(Nov or Dec). In
1928-1930, it was 4
issues per year
(Jan, Mar, Sep,
Nov). In 1931, they
did 5 issues (Jan,
Mar, Oct, Nov, Dec)
and in 1932 they ran
monthly from Jan to
Jun when it was
absorbed into Radio
News.

In 1928 the editor
wrote, "With
this issue, the CITIZEN'S
RADIO CALL BOOK enters into
the seventh year of
publication. The CITIZEN'S
RADIO CALL BOOK of today is
very much different from the
modest loose-leaf Call Book
of 1921. Originally
conceived to supply the
demand of the commercial and
amateur operator for a Call
Book containing all of the
radio stations of the world,
this magazine has slowly
changed, both in physical
appearance and type of
content. We have endeavored,
as year after year passed,
to improve the magazine so
that it would appeal to the
radio public as a whole. Nor
have we neglected our
original readers." |
