Somebody check the tapes around 2000-2030L on 04/21. When I was on the way home, heard the CAP checking up that they had a TOI. Sounded like they were getting ready to pinch someone. It was scratchy for me in Baltimore through the handheld and car antenna -- was on the Huntress A-A frequency and the 260.900. Shortly afterwards they did clear and transmitted they were RTB.309.85 active as CAP players RTB, weak though, NOBLE A2A?
