Re: [IRCA] KNBR silent period



AARGH!

A couple years ago, I got word of a silent period for both KNBR and KTCT and
announced it here.  The East Helena MT test on 580 got re-arranged to that
date because of the silent period.  I wish I would have known about this
one...I can't get Las Vegas/670 from here since I can see KNBR's stick from
my home.
