Re: [IRCA] I-84 Sweep Tones

["Doug Pifer-desert4wd.com" <oregon4wd@xxxxxxxxxxx>]

Rene's comment below reminded me of last week when I was traveling past the 
Boise (ID) area on I-84. I was driving my '93 Chevy 1500 which has a stock 
radio from hell in it. I think the bandwidth filter is at least 20.0 not to 
mention if the radio or lines has any shielding at all, hi.  Anyways, while 
driving through that area, the whole AM bcb was being abused by a continuous 
sweep tone and continued from one end of the valley to the other. The 
stronger locals would knock it down most of the way, but any other frequency 
was unusable. There were numerous- spaced out- towers just W-SW of the 
interstate but I don't know for sure if they were the culprits.
