There was an interesting story in the Business Review (Albany NY) on

nationwide make the switch each year. It quoted a media research firm

I noticed that FEMA has been issued a TIS license in Selma AL under the

It is unusual that a Federal agency licensed this under the FCC. Federal

This is great! Clear Channel stations are usually among the best QSLers.

As I have mentioned several times previously, the Information Station

LAX uses the same model Valcom antenna that the 530 TIS here in Denver

gain factor.
