Hi Guys, I live about 8 miles from the Long Island NY location listed on
their web site, so, I made a copy of the YAHOO MAPS search results for 722
Albin Avenue in West Babylon zip 11704 as listed on the Burhanradio web
site, drove over to take a look. Here's what I found, there is no number
722 Albin Avenue in West Babylon, I found number 715, 719, and 725 in that
order, no number 722, I asked the lady at 725 and she never heard of
BurhanRadio or number 722, now I know that usually even number and odd
house numbers are on opposite sides of the street, so, I checked the
opposite side, there is a Catholic Church and Convent that stretches for
about 1000 feet in both directions from where 722 should be. Then I
checked all houses for 1/2 mile in both directions, no 722. I found the
mailman and he never heard of Burhan Radio or number 722 Albin Avenue,
interesting; when I returned to my office I checked the Cole's reverse
phone book where you can find a house number from the phone number and all
houses and phone numbers from a street name, there is no 722 Albin Avenue
listed, now Coles' shows all houses with numbers even if they have
unlisted phones or have no phone, nothing listed for 722. SO, there it is,
not sure what to think??? Someone noted a phone number, give it to me and
I will check Coles' and see what comes up, 73's Ken
