Re: [IRCA] Talk on 890 AM?

["Richard Toebe" <rtoebe@xxxxxxxxxxx>]

Don,

Curtis lives way across town from me, in the southwest corner near the 
Medical Facility with all those metal wires strung out in straight lines... 
he must have better reception as a result. :-)

Let me know if you can hear the Travis AFB station on 890.  During the day 
it should be possible, especially if you hear the TIS on 790 from Pittsburg.
