 That is probably how she listens to it. Thread solved.

When I visited San Diego a long time ago I taped the audio from XETV Channel 6 which was an independant station back then. I Got some cool audio clips From The original Dating Game, The All New Newlywed Game and The All New Let's Make A Deal which all aired on that station in 1985. I've still got those audio tapes today!

 Yeah, I didn't know that. There is no channel 6 in my area.

I'm lucky here in St. John's - we get a local station named NTV on Ch.6 - thus I can listen to Jeopardy and H2 on the way home from class - what a riot.

Wheel, however, doesn't lend itself easily...

Cheers,

Ryan :)

I also had one of those TV band radios; GS fan that I've always been, I bought it specifically to catch the premiere of Card Sharks on NBC while working at a mini-serve gas station on US 1 in my home town of Saugus, MA.

I was able to listen to the whole show without customer interruption, since the station was on the southbound side of the highway, and north of Boston. So I would run around crazy from 6 AM to 9, and then be challenged to stay awake for the rest of the shift.  Being able to catch the NBC game shows was cool, even if it was audio-only.

Esoteric Eric, who wondered what the CS question holder looked like, since Jim Perry referred to it as R2-D2 in early episodes (later changed to G2-T2; imagine why.)

TPIR itself is hit and miss without a picture.  (Our brand new pricing game, Hit and Miss . . .) I used to have fun, while doing some high school commuting, trying to follow the Showcase Showdowns by counting the beeps and referencing my already-frightening knowledge of the wheel layout.
