COMMENTS AND OTHER INFO......
Shawn Axelrod: "I was expecting to hear more stations this weekend but I
suppose I was listening at the wrong times. Still it was fairly fruitful in
number. R. Metallica still puts in the best signal of any station on the air.
The 0220 broadcast came up with a solid S8-9 on the Drake S meter".
Larry Russell: "KOLD provided nice dinner mx for a very late supper. Several
pirates did too much talk over music/sound effects. If I want to hear CW,
I'll listen to the ham bands". [Amen! cl].
