[Scan-DC] Fwd: Good, strong, analog signals in Arlington area?

[George H]

 Joint Base Anacostia-Bolling consists of two historically separate
military installations: Bolling Air Force Base (AFB)/Bellevue Housing
complex2 and Naval Support Facility Anacostia (NSF)  The merger was
mandated through the 2005 Base Realignment and Closure Act (BRAC) to
develop more cost effective and efficient operations. The two installations
officially unified into a Joint Base on October 1st, 2010, to be known as
Joint Base Anacostia-Bolling. This comes from
http://www.ncpc.gov/DocumentDepot/Actions_Recommendations/2011May/Joint_Base_Anacostia_Bolling_Draft_Master_Plan_Recommendation_MP55_May2011_.pdf
a 9 meg pdf - essentially it is the master plan for the combined area, with
unusual emphasis on removing parking spaces.

provides
some frequency info for the joint base.  Sorry - I didn't pick thru to find
the details; other readers may find different useful information here.
