Hey Patrick, Darn near every DJ that came out of KMPC during that period went on to bigger and better things. It was pretty amazing.
On 710, KIRO dominates (obviously) and KSPN isn't all that common. Last logging was in '04. I got KMIA three years ago and that's it. Since my noises sort of fluctuate with the time of year, I should check out 710 more often. I've taken a few weeks off, so it's time to get "on" (hi) my duff and DX some more. 73- Doug ----- Original Message ----- From: "Patrick Martin" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> To: "Mailing list for the International Radio Club ofAmerica" <[email protected]> Sent: Saturday, February 24, 2007 10:55 AM Subject: Re: [IRCA] KIRO 710/SS stations > Doug, > > Bob was a real fan of the old KMPC.
