This week, Surfin’ discovers that call letters can have an interesting -- and unexpected -- history.



I have something leftover from last year: an error in the “Where's Channel 1?” story from two columns ago. It turns out that the call letters WNBT were not used by the TV station in New Britain, Connecticut, which is now WVIT Channel 30.

    Hello gentlemen and Ladies. I have the dreaded RCI-2990 receive issue where my radio gets distorted when people get close to my location. I found the C90 Capacitor, but I can not for the life of me find the C89 capacitor. Can or does anyone have a picture of the exact location of C89 ? Thank you in advance, Wes
