[IRCA] The 1620 WJDI Story

I connected with Dave Schneider a year ago after posting some old WJDI
audio clips on my blog. After exchanging some emails, we thought it
would be nice to properly document the history of WJDI with facts
provided by the person behind the operation, Dave Schneider. This story
documents Dave's interest in DXing at an early age and how this interest
evolved into the first WJDI in 1970 using only 7-1/2 watts. WJDI would
later be recognized as running one of the most powerful hand-crafted
pirate transmitters on the AM dial on 1620 kHz during the late 1980s
through the mid 1990s. If anyone has any memories of hearing WJDI then
I would encourage you to leave a comment at the bottom of the page this
story appears on so Dave will see it:
