Hi all,

Had the sim for two years with no time to do it justice until recently; unemployment is a wonderful thing for a gaming life. Anyway been playing stock and reading the forums, checking out the mods available (wow, you guys do some awesome work on those things) and kicking myself for not playing this sooner.

Since I can't mod to save my butt I thought I throw this out there for the radio modders http://www.archive.org/details/WWII_News_1941 . You may already be aware of it but if not its a great site, archive.org that is. This link is for hours of news reports from 1941 if you just replace the 1 in 1941 with the year you want, i.e. 1942 it'll take you to that years page, or better yet do a search for WWII audio and buckle up!. The archive starts in 1932 and goes until '45. All of the broadcasts are in the public domain so they are free to d/l and use. There are also dozens of OTR programs like Dragnet and Gunsmoke and finally hundreds of other types of materials from the WWII era throughout the site. Enjoy.
