400104 or 400107 Gene Gets Discovered (promo for Doublemint gum dealers) was 53-09-06 Double Poison (First Song - She's My Sunflower). At 2:10 is the song Vaya Con Dios, released in 1953.

400107 (or 470604) Promo was an unaired promo show for Doublemint Gum sellers. It was not the first program (that program aired 400107). It refers to the first program as being broadcast this Sunday. radiogold gives date of 400104.

400218 (007) How Gene Got Champion is the wrong date. Has been circulating with no date and show #7. Date was arrived at by someone calculating what date the 7th show would have been on. Although there is no evidence, this show is actually the seventh one broadcast. Features the song, My Adobe Hacienda which was registered for copyright on 410218. Also has the song, When the Snow-birds Cross the Rockies, which was registered for copyright 46-03-31. Also, it was an AFRS broadcast.

45-09-30 Fred Collier is Robbed, 45-10-07 Gene Is Accused of Murdering Chet Simmons, 45-10-14 Smuggling of New Medicine, 45-10-21 Marshall Bart Jackson all seem to be bad dates that were derived from taking the shows with undated log numbers of the shows, 2, 3, 4, 5 and plugging them into a log for the year 1945, and assuming they must fit there. There appears to be no rhyme or reason for the undated log numberss.
