I'd forgotten about this being a neat read,   http://johnbrashear.tripod.com/wlcr.html
“I am often asked how radio works. Well, you see, wire telegraphy
is like a very long cat. You yank his tail in New York and he
meows in Los Angeles. Do you understand this? Now, radio is
exactly the same, except that there is no cat.”
-Attributed to Albert Einstein, but I ripped it from the latest Splatter .PDF March 2025 issue.

Really good article! That's the kind of thing low power is good for. Have to think there are many stations like this from camps and schools back then that we may never hear about, they were just another camp project. The kids probably learned something though.
