I can use trading CONTACTS from in or near various
places, including but not limited to the markets listed below.
I can not over-emphasize the trading contacts
part. Seems that even the most intelligent radio-geek will still
take this list to mean I either want a bad 10-year-old tape of a station
from that market, or that I will consider someone who lives 45 miles away
and can/will only tape just a few of the major FMs (and then only those
they like) to be "in the market".
Albuquerque-Santa Fe
Austin, TX
Chicago
Denver-Boulder
Detroit-Windsor
El Paso-Ciudad Juarez
Las Vegas
Lawrence-Manhattan-Topeka
Milwaukee
Minneapolis-Saint Paul
Monterey-Salinas-Santa Cruz
Montréal
New Orleans
New York City

Philadelphia
Phoenix
Portland, OR
Rochester, MN
Saint Louis
San Diego-Tijuana
San Francisco-Oakland-San Jose

Old tapes I am looking for. First, the stations,

NOT receive edited/scoped tapes, except in very special circumstances...And
