they do actually transmit some things over there from the tower, such as:

"Number 99 Michael, Clear into the Track, Smoke on"
"Number 27 Nicholas, Proceed to Hold 3"
"Number 2 Kirby, 1 minute 18.22 seconds no penalties"

From memory, i think that is prerecorded/delayed in some instances because last year i was seated next to a very noisy group which had a FM Radio with a commentary. There was a delay of about twenty seconds from the time i heard it in my ear ( ) to the time it was played on the FM cometary. 3

I wonder if WAPOL will lose WT604 this year?

I meant the commentary is boring... Much more interesting to listen to the Airband Freq's if you can...

it is FM radio Procedure to delay all transmitions by about 20 seconds, incase something goes wrong (eg: something is said that shouldent be), they have time to kill the transmition.
