[MRCA] RAO-2 / Jericho

[Richard Arland, W3OSS]

If you copied the CW being sent on the 2nd episode and the title of each 
episode, it is actual CW....the titles spell out J-E-R-I-C-H-O and the 
episode number.

The CW on the 2nd episode were snippets of some sports stuff "2 minute 
warning'...ect.

What the producers SHOULD do is what was done back in the 30s and 40s in the 
movies: when the scene called for CW someone on post production would add 
their callsign, possible a "CQ" or something about the movie or the operator 
that was actually sending the CW.

Jericho should embed some interesting snippets of stuff about the show and 
offer special a walk-on appearance or merchandise to who ever sent in the 
correct copy to the website. Just a thought!!
