<p class=MsoNormal><font size=2 face=Arial><span style='font-size:10.0pt;
font-family:Arial'>I've recently been listening to a radio station in Chicago,
87.9 FM, which is playing Joe Frank material around the clock-&nbsp; Joe Frank
and only Joe Frank shows for 24 hours a day! .... no announcements, no station
IDs, and you can only hear them in certain parts of the North Side, basically
from about Addison on the south to Touhy on the north, with Lake Michigan on
the east and almost to Harlem on the west, at least I could hear them in some
places in that area as I drove around - I'm a taxi driver in Chicago.<br>
<br>
The audio quality is very good and it's GREAT having Joe Frank on at just the
twist of a dial. (It also reminded me to get my tickets for Joe's performance
here on Friday...)<br>
<br>
So far I haven't heard any programs repeat. <br>
<br>
This is a mystery! There's been no announcements or on-air explanation of what
it is.&nbsp; Whatever it is, it's GREAT!<br>
<br>
Anybody else out there on <st1:City w:st="on"><st1:place w:st="on">Chicago</st1:place></st1:City>'s
north side that can hear this at 87.9 on FM?</span></font><font face=Arial><span
