                <text>In 2009, BBRM staff and volunteers began the archiving of this collection, with the arranging of objects chronologically (1935 – 1995) and the purchasing of proper archival storage materials. In 2011, an oral finding aid with provenance was constructed by conversations between University of Alabama School of Library and Information Studies (UA SLIS) volunteer Lindsey Reynolds (now at University of Georgia, Athens Library) and BBRM Director Bob Friedman. In 2013 and 2014, those interviews were transcribed by UA SLIS volunteer Michael Mitchell (known affectionately as the MMT).  For each object, the original finding aid conversation has been added and can be found in quotes in the description section. As of the most recent online uploading in August, 2019, the Ephemera Collection consisted of eight boxes containing 413 folders with approximately 850 files, spanning the period 1935-1989.</text>

              <text>Box 8 Folder 41: "All right, moving right along. Folder 41 is a maintenance log from the Johnston Broadcasting Company and this from January of 1986. In the FCC regs, it tells us that transmitter output power = ep x ip x efficiency factor "f" where ep equals the DC input voltage of the final radio frequency amplifier stage; and ip equals the DC input current of the final radio frequency amplifier stage.  FCC regs also says calculations from these measurements can be tolerated at between 100% and 110% of authorized power output.&#13;
&#13;
Applying these conclusions to the ep and ip figures on the maintenance log, we multiply 2850 by .440. The product is 1254 watts. If these calculation are correct, the efficiency factor would be .797...(f = 1000/1254)... (which seems high)..which would correct erp down to 1000 watts.&#13;
