[IRCA] Fort Meade, Maryland TIS 1680

["Bill Harms" <wharms@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

1680 WQGA (announced call)   MD, Fort Meade. Heard today 9/22 1405 
with a computer generated female voice with a request to tune to 16-
80 for information about road conditions and parking information "in 
and about the campus." First heard on my truck radio and then at home 
some 6 miles away. They had been broadcasting NOAA weather from 
Baltimore-Washington International for a few months, and had even 
tested with a digital signal for a short time.  The call letters WQGA 
are probably not complete because if they are followed by three 
digits, they would likely be in the FCC allocated series of call 
letters for local government TISs.  However, Fort Meade is not a 
local government installation.  It is part of the DoD. The mystery 
continues.(WJH-MD)
