I believe that she owned WMCW, Harvard, Ill., on 1600. I heard the station in 1955, wrote but didn't receive a reply. A couple of years later, I happened to mention this to one of my Carleton classmates who was from the Harvard area. He evidently knew her and/or other station personnel, gave me a name to send a f/up and I did receive a verie (not signed by her, however).
