2000 miles away and could be piced up easily for more than 20 miles

restrictions on AFRTS stations... starting with the fact that putting
them
on US soil and then allowing them to compete over areas as big as
several
hundred square miles of off-base US territory was not appropriate. If
there
had been an AFRTS station at one of the San Antonio bases that could
be
heard in downtown SA it would have been closed in about 90 seconds.

A lot of folks lived off base?

No, nearly none lived off base.

No matter, you're off base, you whiny little SOB. Heavy emphasis on the
SOB,
boy.

What part of the fact that the AFRTS stations were operating illegally in a
US territory don't you get? The local broadcasters association formed a
committee to investigate the operational restrictions on AFRTS stations
inside the US and its territories and filed a complaint with the AFRTS board
as well as with the FCC as an interested party and prevailed, getting the
two offending stations closed. An in-compliance limited signal FM at the
now-closed submarine base at Naguabo continued operation as it did not put a
significant signal off base and was judged to be within the spirit of the
AFRTS operational dictates.

As always, 'Eduardo, I think you're full of ****. You've been full of **** for
quite a number of years, not only here, but in numerous radio clubs throughout
our great land.

Hit the road, SOB.
