Re: [IRCA] Homeland Security DX Question and KBOX Station History-Question

[Mike Hardester <DX4EVR@xxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

Mike,
         Thank you! My cousin worked there and I recall being in the 
studio while he was on the air, so I was 6 y/o or less. Also, thank 
you for the call letter history.

         Regarding your line noise, call the power company and let 
them know their transformer or whatever is interfering with your 
ability to hear your favorite Korean station. Should get their 
attention. If it's a PG&E pole (things may have changed), they used 
to be very responsive to customer problems....or was that in a different era?

         Again, thank you for your help.

                         Mike
