Bert -
I remember a set-up similar to what your are describing. There was a house
here in Billings that had a set-up with info available via your car radio. I
think they used 1610 as the transmitting frequency. The antenna set-up could
be seen from the car. It was a long-wire strung from the two far points on the
roof. I'm not sure what the power level was but it didn't get out much beyond
about a block away. I do remember however, being a DX nut back then too, being
able to pick them up at times from my house which was about 4.5 blocks by air
from that house. It's kind of funny. Whenever I drive by that house now, I
still think of the mini radio station that was once set-up there. For $50, I
would grab it quick. If it was anything like that set-up, it's well worth the
50 bucks.
Cheers,
Ty
