Re: [IRCA] A little 1450 DX
Well, Callarman has been getting all the press lately so I'd better jump
in. David, your mention of WHLS immediately sent my old memory cycles
spinning. In the very early 1950s I used to hear this station (and
bless them for keeping their same calls all these years) quite regularly
during the early morning hours. They were one of the few 24/6 stations
in that radio era. They had a very nice QSL card besides sending me a
business card size membership in the WHLS Coffee Club (or some such).
One of the stations of that time period I still remember quite clearly
(or so I think nowdays). Oh, I was living in N.W. Iowa at the time.

Hi Group:
Dug a couple 1450s out of the mess last evening;
1450 WHLS Port Huron, MI 9/22, 1813 ELT in much QRM w/local spots, at least 2 mentions of Port Huron.
1450 WFRA Franklin, PA 9/22, 1815 also here w/promo and clear, "WFRA/WOYL" ID, Topazdirect says there are two other stations simulcasting in this group, but I only heard those two IDs.
BTW, the call on the Portsmouth 1260 is WNXT, not WNIX.
