Thanks Joe!  I wound up driving by there on the way home (worked until 10) 
and didn't go up into the court - did see a TV remote truck there - channel 
7 had a piece on it on the 1100 news as it turned out, but since I didn't 
know whose truck it was, I was channel-surfing and missed most of it... but 
got the rest from the MCFRS Media Hotline recording (240/777-2442 for those 
of you who don't know it).

But what you put up here was better info than I got from either the TV or 
the hotline, thanks?

Question for all, rhetorical or other... why aren't the TV remote trucks 
lettered with their station graphics... at least that way, if you spotted 
one, you'd know which station to watch...

I must be missing something here!

Doug

PS, Joe, give me a holler about that monitor!  :)
