Actually, both are correct. In the old OMSI computer lab we had a fairly
good selection of tunes you could hear thru the AM radio atop the PDP-8.
Later, the Altair picked up on this as well. In fact, I've still got a
original copy of the Dompier programs and docs which I will be adding to
my web pages as time permits... (OCR correcting and all...) B^}
