The annual Topless Driving Parade, this year as in others, will in all likelihood have me being topful, since I'm a very modest man.
Not actually a satellite feed, quad; ITFS, which is a terrestrial band. Close, RF-wise, but different tech. (Really close, actually. Just right betwen the ISM band where the most popular implementations of 802-11 ["Wi-Fi"] operate and the lower end of the C-band.) ITFS is the band the relay of KFWG to the stations goes out over--KFWP's feed of KFWG programming goes out over a fibre trunk from Clackamas, since the Cascades get in the way of the microwave signal's line of sight (and the dynamic weather in the Cascades would practically make it infeasible.)
There are tentative plans to build out an ITFS relay network on the east side of the mountains, similar to the one over here, to carry FWP's signal out to transmitters in other areas on that side of OR/WA.

I am now posting aircheck files and such on Youtube under https://youtube.com/user/oldradiotapes on an experimental basis.When downloading any of these files, please use only the type 22 (720-P) option when available, as it provides the highest-fidelity audio (MP4/192k AAC).

I'm a very modest man, and that's why I prefer Pabst Blue Ribbon.

I prefer Pabst Blue Ribbon when I'm tailgating before an Olivia Newton-John concert in the parking lot with my pals from The FWG (or TFWG as some prefer).

My pals from The FWG (or TFWG as some prefer) always come through for me whether it's at the main campus or another one of our locations around the globe.

Another one of our locations around the globe will be hosting an international band camp competition this summer but unfortunately our deal with NBC to televise the competition feel through because they're already spending way too much money to cover the Olympics.

The Olympics for 2016 were rumored to be going to Chicago, but all the time Rio had it in the bag.

In the bag that was found in the library was a lot of Krugerrands, which were returned to their owner after thorough verification.

Thorough verification of the owners revealed that they were one of our most generous benefactors, as was evidenced by the donation of all of the Krugerrands to our many, efficiently run, cost effective camp activities.

News reports: The unemployment rate went up because unemployed people who persisted in looking for work despite being told that they gave up, before and after benefits ran out, continued looking for work.

Our many, efficiently run, cost effective camp activities are open to all band camp campers, family members, staff, volunteers, and alumni.

Alumni of the Illusions Line Dancing School are eligible for a free bottle of Poland Spring water, compliments of the owner, who's got crates of them.
