The radio station KBOK on the hill broadcast about 10 watts. The Sinop Mayor complained all the teenies were listening
to our station and getting 'morally corrupted'. So the C.O. decided we had to shut down. Not to quit, we terminated the RF
and wired up a 100 watt audio amplifier and strung wires throughout all the barracks day rooms with speakers. I remember there
was SSGT who constantly insisted on hearing Boots Randolf, "Stranger on the Shore" till I got so sick, I 'accidently' broke
the record on night!
Thus, KBOK radio became a closed circuit radio system, providing limited programming to each and every Det 4 room.
