SIGNAL:
The signal from the Tolsona Ridge Transmitter has been better this winter
thanks to Russ Jindra's efforts in installing frost-protection sleeves.
During extreme weather conditions, the signal may still be diminished.
We appreciate signal reports from Copper Basin listeners, as well as
from listeners in other outlying areas. Your feedback is important,
so let us hear how you're hearing us.
