What our readers say about WRTH – Testimonials

I’ve been purchasing WRTH almost every year since 1967… and the 2025 version is as good as it gets! As an ” old timer ” it’s amazing to see how WRTH continues to evolve while keeping the passion for radio alive.

John Balzer, USA

I received my copy of this fine reference today and I am delighted to see its continued publication. Thank you very much for taking up the mantle! Having spent 60 years as a radio hobbyist and almost 50 years as a now retired broadcast professional, I have come to rely on WRTH as a most valued source of material. It appears, at even a brief first glance, that it is continuing in that tradition.

Congratulations and best wishes for continued success with this book. You’ve done a marvelous job!
