Hi Guys:

Well....after being disappointed last night with nothing new for the
Logbooks.......tonight made up for it with 3 NEW Stations for the ULR
Log.....2 of which are NEW to the OVERALL LOG and the 3rd is a CALL CHANGE
for the OVERALL LOG.

I am really noticing stations starting to fade up rather early now...by
1700 EDT...lots of stuff is fading up...and the Groundwave conditions have
been very good too!! It is still very light outside at 1700 EDT here...but
the conditions are starting to sound like twilight time!!

Radios used for these 3 Loggings are the SONY SRF-T615 and ETON E-100 ULR's
^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^

Ultralight Log Total is now.......................481 STATIONS Heard
^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^

73.............ROB.

I'm pretty sure 1530 WYNE's city of license is North East,
Pennsylvania....that's a suburb that is, surprise: northeast of
Erie!

They used to be in a cement block building in a corn field out in
the country...tower supporting WYNE & their FM, behind the building.

Back in the 70's they simulcasted....and were owned by the farmer
who planted that corn. He'd put on a tape with music on it...let it
run, and often the tape would run out allowing long periods of dead
air while he was on his tractor in the corn field.

The above is the real truth, as silly as it might sound. You could
never make up a story like that! LOL, hi, hi.

Yes...I remember it well...That's why I mentioned that WHYP (The Old Calls
) was a CULT CLASSIC!! I also used to hear the WHYP FM Transmitter here on
100.9 FM!! ...which is now WRKT.....Rocket 101....which I believe now IDs
as ERIE...which is probably why I wrote ERIE for the City on the logging I
sent!! Just Old Age setting in!!

73....ROB.
