Ok on 1170 which has been off for maybe 2 weeks. This Cape Cod station was on into the night past its daytime period. Then gone the next day. Also another station has taken over the 1170 outlet that was U.A.E. The unrest continues in that area of the country. Would not want to take a vacation that neck of the woods, or should say, Desert.
Take care,
OLD ROY FROM OLD CAPE COD
