TIS Station WQFG689 DX'ed.

Must be doing something right with that raised Windom. Heard this TIS station 11/18/2018, 06.26UTC at an S3,   https://fjallfoss.fcc.gov/General_Menu_Reports/engineering_search_out.cfm    NJ accents and all with loop on winter survival and landline telephone audio quality. I haven't heard a TIS station this good via DX in over 20 years. UPDATE: Gee, your tax $$$$ at work. Sometime that above link works, and the other 1/2 the time it errors. So, try this at the TIS FCC site,      https://www.fcc.gov/media/radio/travelers-information-stations-search      , then select NJ, Single FREQ, and 1710kHz. You might have to do it more than once. Gee, we're paying for this?

The best two statements of advice that I've ever gotten are from my brother-in-law in the early 1990's. 1st one, when I bought a used '89 Olds Cutless, my bro-in-law said, "Congratulations!!! You've just bought a deficit!". The other, was on a work environment, " No matter where you go, it's going to be f***'ed -up!". No truer words have been spoken.
