As chief engineer of WTBS (the one at MIT...the sailor guy hadn't bought
the callsign from us yet), I had the legitimate opportunity to file this
trouble report:

Problem: Studio A door sticks
Solution: Move to new studio

The door did indeed begin sticking the day before our scheduled move out of
Ware dormitory's basement (Ware was one of the Senior House collection).

The move ruined the break:
"This is WTBS, 640 on your dial in Cambridge, broadcasting from Senior
House under Ware."
