Just like the Capitol Records building in Los Angeles. On top of Capitol Records is an aircraft warning beacon which flashes H-O-L-L-Y-W-O-O-D in Morse Code.
the caption says "attention" but the code sound is sending a "V". and at the end the caption says "end" but is also sending a "V" "V" is used to catch your ear....like attention, but the sound ...-. means ! ( the exclamation mark) If I remember correctly. either way the text and sound in both the begining and end dont match!
Sure- it makes perfect sense. What else would you expect those dots and dashes to spell out: "Bring home a quart of milk and a loaf of bread"? "RCA and David Sarnoff are our partners, and don't you forget it"? "For a good time, call Klondike 5815"?
Anetuka, totalmente de acuerdo, lo que pasa que King Kong fué la primer pelicula que impactó en mi infancia, y la presentación de la RKO me significaba una parte de KONG.
Very cool. Well done. Thanks.

Gotta love the internet... ($5 billion dollar infrastructure to decipher (and teach) the title screen of an RKO Radio Picture) LOL.

@NG9D Man that's insane...if gpm is the same as wpm. The fastest I ever had to copy was 20 wpm and that took a lot of effort and caffeine :)
