Do Not Adjust Your Set. Normal service will shortly be resumed. In the meantime...



There is nothing wrong with your radio set. Do not attempt to adjust the volume. We are controlling transmission. We will control the left channel. We will control the right channel. We can tweak the bass; make it flutter. We can change the treble to a soft blur or sharpen it to crystal clarity. For the next hour, sit quietly and we will control all that you hear. We repeat: there is nothing wrong with your radio set. You are about to participate in a great adventure. You are about to experience the awe and mystery which reaches from the inner mind to the outer limits.
