Re: [IRCA] IRCA Digest, Vol 12, Issue 59



Doug, I couldn't agree with you more.  Most of what I see IS am radio
related and if it goes OT once in a while, that's ok too.

Hi Alan,
I've been on the list for a year or two and a member of IRCA for the most 
part of 25 years. Alan, how long have you been an active member of IRCA?  As 
you should know, the amount of input on this list goes up or down depending 
on topics that are brought up. I find that I'm not too interested in the 
material from the east coast, because most doesn't pertain to what I know or 
can hear. (All emails don't have to be reviewed, just check the subject 
title.) Occasionally the conversation goes off track, but not very often. I 
don't regard any of it as fluff, especially when you have 10-20 DX'ers 
talking about AM radio, DX catches, past or present . I've read all the 
emails from the current thread from front to back and prefer it over a week 
of silence... actually I'm completely enjoing it. Unlike some other types of 
lists, AM radio topics can be wide range. Long histories, personalities, 
programming changes.  This is what makes it different than a list only for 
those who own a certain brand and model of radio. This time of year, full on 
AM DX starts slowing down and this can be expected. I do want to say thanks 
to those who "input" to this list for broadening my knowledge of AM radio as 
well as alerting me to catching many stations that I hadn't previously 
heard. It is invaluable and you have my tip of the hat. I also thank the 
IRCA for not putting an expressive noose around my neck.
73- Doug
