INDY 500 IN STEREO?

R

radio lover

I remember in the 70's WNAP use to broadcast the time-trials and race in stereo, and in the 80's WZPL did at one time and I recall it sounded great, so why isn't it done today? Is there a cost factor?
 
They used crown mics near the "brick" part of the yard.

Still done to the best of my knowledge. The stereo efect is noticeable on stations electing to carry the feed.
 
I just thought it was cool to hear the race on FM instead of AM...for a change..lol... But you're right, the stereo was really a great addition!
 
I can remember one year when a certain small town station aired the 500 in stereo also...seems like they had a real noisy satellite feed and borrowed ZPL's on-air audio instead. It did sound pretty decent!
 
Does anyone know when WIBC was broadcasting in am stereo if they ever used a stereo feed?
How would one find out if the IMS network does offer a stereo feed?
 
I like the idea of the 500 in quadrophonic....turn 1 in speaker 1, turn 2 in speaker 2 and so on. Sit in the middle of the room with a beer in your lawn chair and it's like you're there. Maybe you can even get your wife to show her t***s!
