Re: [IRCA] KNZZ 1100-CO also logged in Indianapolis (darned lucky) plus an unID

["HASCALL, DAVID CIV DFAS" <DAVID.HASCALL@xxxxxxxx>]

Hey Don:

I must have been VERY good!  Earlier this year I had a weak station that
was just at "mud level" fade up just in time for the TOH and now this.
I have not been as lucky of a DX'er since the early 1980's.  That was
when a guy on WBZ got tounge tied, stopped talking for about 3 seconds,
just long enough to get an ID out of Casper, Wyoming, under their
carrier.  Never heard them, since.  You know how Murphy works, most of
the times stations fade down at the TOH.

73,
Dave in Indy

You must have been a 'good' boy Dave.  The overseerers of the dx medium
were kind to you inre KNZZ/WTAM.  I've had this good fortune a time or
two but more often it's (did I get it right Dave
Faulkner?) the other way around and my query gets obliterated at the ID
time.
