Re: [IRCA] Vintage receiving station with loops

["Donald K. Kaskey" <kaskeyfamily@xxxxxxxxx>]

You're certainly correct.  Houses all over.  In fact it inspired Melvina 
Reynolds to compose her little ditty "Little boxes on the hillside, 
little boxes made of ticky-tacky.....There's a green one and a pink one 
and a blue one and a yellow one, and they're all made out of ticky-tacky 
and they all look just the same."  Everytime I drive up Skyline Blvd. 
thru Daly City I sing this song :-) .
