Hi again Vaughn
What a small World we live in! There are two things I know about Alton Il.
First it figures in The Guiness Book of records for the birth of the tallest
man in the World. Secondly it's the home of 1570 WBGZ "radio for the river
bend" which I logged here in England a couple of years ago. I started AM
Dxing back in the early 60's when 10-10 WINS was a rock station with a DJ
called "Mad Daddy!" At that time we had the BBC and Radio Luxembourg for pop
music. Listening to WINS and a rocker called 15-10 WMEX was a real eye
opener.
