The OTRR Group is a community of enthusiastic fans, avid listeners, and strong supporters of “Old Time Radio". The group’s goals include restoring, preserving and sharing the classic shows from what is commonly known as the "Golden Age of Radio" (1930-1960). The OTRR Group, comprised of a diverse world wide group of volunteers, has undertaken many ongoing projects and continues to work hard to preserve our wonderful radio heritage.
Our MISSION STATEMENT explains in greater detail our organizational structure and how we function. If you think you may be interested in joining our efforts, please take time to review this page.
Below you'll find links to many of the various activities our group supports. Please take time to explore any or all the following venues. Everyone is welcome here
