If my memory serves me well, there were two H/F stations on the US west coast.
KPH run by RCA and KFS run by ITT.
I visited KFS back in 1975/76 while serving as Radio Officer on Niarchos tankers
but never got to see KPH.

Hello, were do the audio clips from the beginning of the video come from? It sounds very cool.

DA - Wow, what a flair and style you show with the bug! Sure and I'm Morse savvy after a lifetime of it's use,but my handling of a key is more like watching the corner scow driver hacking pork chops with an axe. Your style is more like a sushi chef with every motion an art form in presenting the meal.

Yes, Denise is a former U.S. Coast Guard radio operator, and after leaving the Coast Guard, she was the first female radio operator to join KPH ... she's a kewl person !! ..

Geez, Denise makes it look SO EASY! Did you bring your key? It all looks so complicated. Maybe I'll learn the code someday and be able to figure out what's being 'said'. Thanks for posting Elaine, miss ya.
