Re: [IRCA] [HCDX] TP DX

Paul, it would be interesting if AFN is off.  I here them all of the time
in Masset, and over the years, they're always near or on-channel (within
Hz, I mean).  It's a shame you don't have a receiver which can more
accurately measure frequencies, as this can be very helpful in IDing the
stations.   73,  Walt
