Both of the guys in Michigan are within a hour drive from here.

well. I'm l'm glad she slapped rsy...... he is one of the frequency cops on .313 and a certain 40 meter freq too.

has a big amp and likes to flap his lips and QRM other stations. DEMANDING that they ID any time he wants them too, ect. he also seems to like to drink a LOT, even in the afternoon he seems to be drunk and slurring his words 7200 khz usb coms - The RadioReference.com Forums
