Historical FM DX Opportunity

Saturday, June 11 2005


Gents:

There will be an historical brpadcast celebrating the 70th anniversary
of Major Edwin Armstrong's invention of FM this weekend, 6/11 at 1200 EDT.

It will emanate from Armstrong's big tower in Alpine, NJ -- at 42.8mc in
the original FM broadcast band.

There will also be rebroadcasts as detailed here =

So warm up that Drake R8 or Icom R75 -- or try for it with your scanner.
