I grew up listening to WJR. That and TSN were my only connection to the Tigers. I couldn't get day games, but the Reception was pretty good on clear nights. At times I had to hold the radio a certain way in order to get the games. Other times I had to figure out what was going on through the static. I got to be pretty good at following the game for an inning or two just hearing the intonation of Harwell's voice, the crowd sounds and the timing of commercials through the static.
