What with all the big SW broadcasters calling it quits, lets all pull

On my Hammarlund HQ-145XC, I Pulled in most east coast stations from
Maine to the US Virgin Islands on 1620kc. There are still thousands
of catches out there to get, as John Plimmer has shown. Might go back
to seeing how many states I can verify!


Oooh, kids, that's scary stuff! You'll need your 3-D aerials to actually
receive any of this stuff! Just $19.95! Make the check out to me - Count
Floyd. I handle all this stuff, so....


WOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO! Bet I scared you that time, eh kids?
Heh heh.

Another great SCTV fan. Got almost all of them, including the Cinemax
year on tape/dvd.
