Spelling Out Airport Names Re: [MilCom] 225.0 MHz

[Duke Rumley]

Ken, I usually post while still listening to the xmsn in an effort to get 
the info out in time for others to hear it also. This means I don't have 
time to look up all the info to supplement my posts. But if real time 
posting allows just one other person to hear the tfc, then it's worth it.
Of course I also read the logs posted after the fact to gain new data.
