The improvised Led Zeppelin song that was lost by the BBC for over 40 years (Far Out)<\/a><\/h2>\n

During Led Zeppelin\u2019s 12 years together, the group released eight studio albums, each composed of tracks Jimmy Page and company believed to be the best representation of the group at that specific moment in time. When amassed, these albums trace the evolution of Zeppelin\u2019s style, approach to production, individual musical skills, and songwriting habits. And while we might have assumed this rendering of Zeppelin\u2019s musical life to be complete, it would seem that we\u2019ve not been given the full picture. Indeed, there are certain Led Zeppelin songs that even some of the group\u2019s most die-hard fans never knew existed.<\/p>\n

Following the release of the Led Zeppelin compilation album BBC Sessions in 1997, Jimmy Page began hearing a bootleg version of a song he hadn\u2019t heard in just under 30 years. The band had never attempted it during an album session, and it never appeared on any of their records. After a bit of digging, Page realised that the track had come from a BBC performance Led Zeppelin made in the first months of 1969. Unfortuantely, it transpired that the BBC had managed to lose the tape from that day, meaning that Page was forced to track down a copy of the song a fan had recorded off the radio back in \u201969.

How One Music Station Covered The Buffalo Massacre (Radio Ink)<\/a><\/h2>\n

(By Tom Langmeyer) The unfortunate conventional wisdom that has prevailed in radio during the last 20 years is \u201cWe are a music station. We don\u2019t do news.\u201d Unfortunately, this sentiment represents many people who set the tone for the industry and make these proclamations proudly, as the radio business becomes more and more irrelevant.<\/p>\n

There is some truth to the statement that a \u201cmusic station should not be covering news\u201d by those who think completely linearly. However that culturally process-driven approach that has zero to do with results.<\/p>\n

A music-intensive radio station is not expected to do news in the traditional sense, nor should be competing with news stations. It\u2019s not a music station\u2019s role.<\/p>\n

However, all radio stations must have a component of \u201cnews. Now, before folding your arms across your chest, think about it this way.<\/p>\n

\u201cNews\u201d is really what your listeners need and want in the radio experience. What does \u201cnews\u201d mean for your station? What is it? How is it delivered? How much? How do we activate our listener? That\u2019s where things are different and need to be defined.<\/p>\n

Think about a great country station that\u2019s talking about a concert that\u2019s happening in town and building an experience around it. That\u2019s NEWS.<\/p>\n

No one is saying a music station should be WINS, WBBM, KNX or KCBS.<\/p>\n

No matter the music format is, there needs to be a playbook for how and what information (relevant \u201cnews\u201d) gets presented.<\/p>\n

On the advising side of Great Lakes Media\u2019s business, we create customized plans for stations committed to localism and winning on the revenue hill. Sure it\u2019s different \u2013 and that\u2019s why it works.<\/p>\n

It\u2019s called the \u201cGreat Lakes Media Way.\u201d [Continue reading at Radio Ink…<\/a>]<\/p>\n

FCC Sends Pirate Radio Notices to Property Owners (Radio World)<\/a><\/h2>\n

Agents traced signals in Pennsylvania, Maryland and Oregon<\/p>\n

The Federal Communications Commission has sent notices to several property owners of alleged pirate radio activities on their properties.<\/p>\n

The letters from the Enforcement Bureau are headlined \u201cNotice of Illegal Pirate Radio Broadcasting.\u201d They remind the owners that federal law now provides for fines of up to $2 million \u201cif we determine that you have continued to permit any individual or entity to engage in pirate radio broadcasting from the property that you own or manage.\u201d<\/p>\n

The bureau said its agents used direction finding techniques to source these FM signals. It mailed letters to Richard Manson for broadcasts on 103.5 MHz in Philadelphia in January; to Maria V. Hernandez of Kissimmee, Fla., for signals on 87.9 MHz in Hazleton, Pa., in January; to Edwin and Joyce Pitt of Baltimore, Md., for signals on 91.3 in February; and to Kent and Deanna Coppinger for signals on 100.5 MHz in La Grande, Ore., in March.

Hamvention to kick off this weekend in Xenia; Thousands expected to attend (Southgate ARC)<\/a><\/h2>\n

After nearly three years, Hamvention is back.<\/p>\n

The convention is the world\u2019s largest amateur radio gathering at Greene County Expo Center, according to the event\u2019s\u00a0website<\/a>.<\/p>\n

Around 30,000 visitors are expected to come to the event from all over the world.<\/p>\n

Michael Kalter<\/strong>, the spokesperson for Hamvention, said that based on numbers from the Greene County Convention Visitors Bureau, Hamvention adds $30 million to the local economy.<\/p>\n

He said amateur radio, also known as ham radio, is something people of all ages and backgrounds can be a part of, which is why he thinks the convention draws such a large crowd.<\/p>\n

Kalter shared how it feels to bring so many people from around the world together. \u201cThat makes me feel really good,\u201d Kalter told News Center 7?s Kayla McDermott. \u201cI\u2019m glad that the hobby seems to be really growing and flourishing,\u201d he added.<\/p>\n

There are no COVID-19 restrictions in place for this year\u2019s convention. With thousands of people expected to attend, safety is a top priority. Before entering the convention center, people must have their bags checked. The Greene County Sheriff\u2019s Department said they have prepared for the event.<\/p>\n

Major Shawn Prall<\/strong>, with the sheriff\u2019s office, said they have a plan in place to make sure traffic moves along smoothly as there are only two lanes to get to the grounds. Crews will also keep an eye on the weather, in case there is a chance for it to turn severe. Prall said this will be his fourth Hamvention and he has never had an incident. \u201cWe\u2019re taking precautions, both that the public will see in uniform presence and also things that they can\u2019t see. Just trying to keep everybody safe and be ready for any kind of incident, whether it be weather or manmade or anything like that,\u201d Prall said.<\/p>\n

The convention runs this weekend 9 a.m.-6 p.m. Friday, 9 a.m.- 5 p.m. Saturday and 9 a.m.-1 p.m. Saturday.<\/p>\n
