I might be entirely wrong re AP. The stations I worked at all had UPI 
until UPI disintegrated. Trying to recall who installed the AP satellite 
dish and receiver after that, thinking it was RCA but so many of my 
memories have been corrupted by later awful things like losing my job.


I have a 28KSR with an engraved metal RCA (newer logo) tag on its left 
front over the keyboard. I don't know its history.
