Couldn't do it without 'em! Sometimes several of us who had shows would put on a long record and go out through the "prod stud" (production studio) to the outside balcony to listen to our shows reverberating back across campus from the dorms. Sometimes people there would be tuned into the station (because we played requests!) and would turn their dorm room speakers around so they were pointing outward. And we could hear it from where we were, up in the top floor of the Administration building.
Those were FUN days!
Sometimes we'd use all four turntables (two in the production room and two in the on-air booth) and put all four copies of "Layla" on them at the same time, turn BOTH studios on live, and let 'er rip! And Engineer Dave would be seated in one of the rooms, with a dust cloth in hand, just ever so slightly slowing one of the records by the edge. Result was - PHASE DISTORTION!!! The music would take on this hissing sound, up and down - SERIOUSLY trippy effect! You'd listen to it and felt like you were stoned off your ass, whether you'd just smoked or not!
