Re: Unbe-freaking-lievable.

No new format is planned. They're using the station to dispatch Taxis, Ambulances and Police cars.

Re: Unbe-freaking-lievable.

You're most welcome, Hoyle. If you'd like some of your airchecks from the '96 - onward era, let me know. [email protected] is the email. Also got one of Smokin' Joe Beamer before he left us. Mr Hagar, hope you're resting well!
