[NJARC] NJ Radio

[John Ruccolo]

Yes, thanks Pete!

I did a test this evening, and was picking up WCTC very well in the car on the way home (roughly between exit 8 and 8A).

Unfortunately, no music -- it was a Somerset Patriots game.

I miss WBUD. It sounded good on my Philco console.

Regards,

John
