Sitting around thinking about the hundreds of voices, faces and names that have cemented the current path of the 22 commercial FM radio stations, one AM and four minimum coverage should be implemented in the province of Arauco is immersed in a world of joys and sorrows, successes and forgetting.
The world of communications, especially radio, is littered with dreamers. Dreamers are those who sleep thinking that tomorrow must wake up to, from the microphone, or controls the sound room, give your audience what they like in music, information and entertainment programs that, often, lack of sponsors. That's your north. That salaries are low, that the effort is sometimes a lot. Nothing matters.
In that world, I have known for 32 years to do communications, many people. In any've forgotten their names but sometimes a bit hard for me to remember (I've never been good at that), but their activities and accomplishments.
So my memories jumped like a rabbit from its cage when I read the post Lanalhue News Héctor Muñoz Flores, who told us of his father, mentioned in the evocations of Millaray radio. I believe very few times a child portrays the body and soul to her father, with more details in an e personnel who subsequently sent me.
Fuica Tito Muñoz,
reached
Millaray radio, brought by the owner Luis Gerardo Rivas Leal, from Los Angeles, where I have understood that performing his work in radio remote controlled O'Higgins, work he shared with his driver activity hence its name "Corporito" and that his whereabouts would be near Corporation radio. Tito and Juan Gutierrez, a radio station were the drivers in 1972, not very happy season for the radio and that funding was difficult and limited staff, so both made occasional appearances as announcers. Juan read notices and Tito was the first to work "American" moving the microphone "Aiwa" to the control room, where he hung very handmade and from there to the programs. The radio was on the corner of Villagrán Covadonga where the family lived also the owner and Luis was his eldest son (now Director of the broadcaster) to whom we corresponded, often bring in arms (especially Tito).
In either way, working on my arrival at the station, where it was my constant friend visits as President of the Student Center Annex Cañete Angol Commercial Institute, at that time directed the beloved teacher (now colleague) Alicia Campos Fernández. Then came my brother Francis (who learned the craft from Juanito Gutierrez radio controller), then, Tito began strongly to programs, with great success on "So sings Mexico" that was one of the largest audiences of the day in the south of the province of Arauco.
Tito lived during that time in the current Ignacio Carrera Pinto street, right at the entrance to Crescent Road campus and from there he corresponded, in turn, going to turn the transmitter, which was first on the same street from Second Line and subsequently at its current location. This happened every day, rain or shine, at dawn or midnight, when there was damage or court of transmissions, since the connection was not plant studies UHF or VHF, as I understand should be today, but through physical line.
was the time of the dreamers, real builders of dreams, those who every day to do radio play and they believed that they did, those same as in each ceremony scales were seen to fire on his men and hundreds Parallel cable meters riding, pole electric pole, the line to broadcast from the stadium, hospital or mdialuna, where in 1981 was made the first transfer by using the telephone (tell that story someday).
worked at that time Tito Munoz, who was accustomed to write, daily and monthly debts that the management of the radio was with him in a book of 40 sheets he kept in the club. Every so often drew accounts and said that was all clear when he could talk to the Director. He never charged. Always observed that the economic situation was precarious in the radio. I think we still should keep this notebook.
That's my friend and "radio teacher" who gave me the best lesson to take away the paper he had written my first script, for the first program they gave me and let me improvise until they got bored one morning I do not remember the date in 1972. Thanks to that, today, I can easily improvise. I wish every radio
today Tito Munoz had Fuica. Thanks friend, hope you are lucky enough to see you sometime.
