[Scan-DC] Lightning damages radio tower-Capital, Aug 28-Page A4

[Doug Kitchener]

For those who may not be aware, this is one 800 MHz system shared by the three counties.  Wye Mills is in Talbot.  (Glad I looked it up - I thought it was in Queen Anne's!)  Check it out on RadioReference for more info.
