Oh there were some doozies from Europe in the 70s. When I was a kid in Honduras, apparently nobody had any sense of appropriateness, so they'd play trailers for the latest Emmanuelle/Venus in Furs-type movie, full-on nudity, right before family movies, theaters full of parents and their kids.

when you pull that page up you see a spectrum, called a 'waterfall.' where the white lines are that's where a radio transmission is and you can drag the yellow pointy thing to that area and listen.
