Thanks to ^SarahR with @TMobile. Through chat, she was really helpful. She put up with my whining about the verification process and was patient and helpful.
How things change. We've been with @TMobile for over 10 years and now for the first time, my wife gets a $35 connection fee for her new iPhone. No notification in the install or email confirming the phone transfer. I guess viewing your bill is now good enough.
#Radio #Pittsburgh_Radio I missed the top of hour ID, but 104.3 and its translator returned as a Family Life Ministries affiliate. So Froggy in the Pittsburgh market is down to one frequency, 94.9.
#Pittsburgh_Radio #Radio WOGI 104.3 and its translator at 105.5 are both silent, off the air. I'm guessing that Family Life Radio will occupy these frequencies shortly.

Trump offers a bribe of $5,000 in exchange for votes, the bribe is promoted as a dividend and would cost $1.2 trillion dollars. This is a felony under 18 U.S.C. § 597, bribing someone to vote a certain way is a federal crime punishable by prison.

49ers defensive coordinator Raheem Morris turned 50 years old Thursday, Sept. 3. It also happened to be the day the 49ers flew to Australia, leaving Wednesday night Sept. 2 and arriving Friday morning Sept. 4, local time. The 49ers lost a day, but Morris lost his 50th birthday.
#Pittsburgh_Radio Temporary change, WLTJ HD3 has dropped its Classic Rock format for Halloween tunes. This will last through Halloween night.
For me, this year's #FMDX season was mostly uneventful, with a few exceptions. To be fair, I'm losing interest in the hobby due to noise and an over crowded dial. But if a portable better than the Qodosen DX286 existed, with even better FM, I'd probably buy it.

I think the general consensus of people around the world is that Americans can get fooled by a con man once, but to return him to power a 2nd time after having seen his corruption, incompetence, ignorance, & buffoonery, the problem isn’t just Trump it’s the American people.

I’m changing the name of the Oval Office, effective immediately, to the Office of Perpetual Embarrassment. That’s going to take place right now.

I was given my name by the Iroquois Nation many hundreds of years ago. By 1660 my name was printed on maps by the Europeans as they accepted the Native name which means Beautiful waters.
In 1867 the Canadian government decided to use my name for their providence.
#Pittsburgh_Radio I can't believe the variety of music on Alt 2K on WLTJ 92.9 HD4. To me, two things are missing, and online presents and more new music put in the mix. I haven't listened to music on @1059TheX and probably two weeks.
#Radio I spent almost a week in Indiana visiting family. In my Uber trips two and from the airport in Pittsburgh and while I was in Indiana, no one listened to local radio in their cars. Music I heard was from generated playlists or SiriusXM.
#SWL i'm wondering if the Sangean ATS-909X2 has either slowed production or has been discontinued. I can't find it on Amazon, I can't find it anywhere. Has anyone heard about the status of this radio and is there something new on the horizon? Thanks.
I got a voicemail and a phone message from @TMobile advising me that my phone warranty will end soon. I haven't bought a phone from any company in well over three years. So I don't know what this refers to. I have been buying directly from the manufacturer.
So @DuquesneLight sent me an email stating I've used more electricity from June 10 through July 9. You think? Almost as good as the reminders to pay my bill when I'm on auto pay.
#Pittsburgh_Radio the re-broadcast of WPTS 92.1 has been moved from WLTJ HD4 to WRRK HD4. Y2K alternative which was heard on WRRK HD4 is *Now on WLTJ HD4. Is HD radio a serious project or just a play toy for station owners?
#FMDX from Brentwood Pennsylvania at 11 AM, heard 103.3 WKFR from Kalamazoo Michigan. That's about 380 miles from my location.
