Local "Hams" Offer
Help With Radio,
TV Static Problem
For many years Heppner resi
dents have reported poor radio re
ception due to various forms of
"static" and now that TV has
come to town local radio amateurs
report that this condition can
cause interference with television
reception.
Many forms of interference can
be corrected, however a person
without basic radio knowledge
often is helpless to decide what
the cause may be or how to ef
fect a cure.
, Several local amateur radio
operators offer, free of charge,
their services and advice in the
correction of the problem. Name
ly, when interference is severe,
note the type, apperance and the
sound and the exact time of day.
The amateurs may be contacted

services have the call letters
