100th Anniversary of the 1st Professional Baseball Game Radio Broadcast
KDKA, Pittsburgh, PA is the longest continuously scheduled commercial broadcast radio station in the world and holds many “firsts” in radio history. The first radio broadcast of a professional baseball game was on KDKA on August 5, 1921, from Forbes Field in Pittsburgh. Butler County Amateur Radio Public Service Group will celebrate this centennial milestone on Saturday, August 7, from 8AM to 8PM EDT with special event station KD3KA operating from Roebling Park in Saxonburg, near the site of KDKA mediumwave and W8XK shortwave transmitters in the 1930’s. A commemorative QSL is available via BCARPSG, P.O. Box 141, Prospect, PA 16052. Please send SASE. Donations gratefully accepted.
