Topband: RTTY Beacon 1790 KHZ

[Tim Shoppa]

Joe and I have faintly heard some sort of non-ARRL 160M voice bulletin on weekends. I remember being told it was in NJ or NY and it was a continuation of some Jean Shepherd tradition. Anyone recognize this low power 160M voice bulletin I'm talking about?
