access their website, and open the network channels page by
clicking on the 'Radio' link near the bottom of the left hand
navigation panel of the home page.
There are 5 radio channels to choose from. It is well worth

and finance. |

Radiolovers.com (Old
Time Radio Shows)
Here is a rare and fascinating collection of old time radio
shows featuring personalities such as Abbott & Costello,
Groucho Marx, Bob Hope, Lucille Ball, Al Jolson, George Burns, Boris
Karloff and many more. The streams are in mp3 format, which
means that each show (with an average size of 3Mb for the short
ones, and around 40Mb for the long ones) is
downloaded to your computer. You may need to keep this in mind
if your internet account affords very limited free downloads per
month. Click on the 'Listen Live' link to access the Radiolovers
website where you can browse the categories and click on a link
to play your selection. If you enjoy these programs it is
recommended that you send an email to the sponsors in support
of their efforts, so that they will be encouraged to keep the
website running. Enjoy! |
