| The Boston Radio Archives: WBZ's Early History (2111 words) |
 | WBZ had a strong signal, which on some nights could be heard as far away as Europe. |
| In 1929, WBZ listeners heard a broadcast that was received in Antarctica by Commander Byrd; messages and tributes were read to him and several distinguished speakers discussed the importance of Byrd's expedition. |
| WBZ had its own drama group—“The WBZ Players”, who wrote and performed a number of plays; Gordon Swan was known for his skill at sound effects, and he was frequently called upon to provide them. |
