  • I believe this was the only eyewitness radio news report of the Pearl Harbor attack that was broadcast to the mainland.

    There may have such reports broadcast locally in Honolulu.

    Back then, voice communications from overseas (or between Hawaii and what are now called the "lower 48") had to be transmitted by shortwave radio, which will explain the poor sound quality of the on-the-spot report.

    And at the end, the "overseas operator" at the phone company in Honolulu cuts off the report.
