[AMRadio] Docket 20777 again!

[Bob Peters]

Don...Talked  with  Jim Haynie  yesterday  about this.....Like  he said and 
please do not quote  me  that they  have not  told  him  what to
petition the FCC on  and that there has  not been a time frame set  to  do 
it...I really  do not think that he is in favor
after he saw all the interest in AM  at  our  special Event  at 
HAMCOM...We  have a very  large contingent of AMers on our  local  repeater 
that
are on him all  the time....
