Re: It's happened again

The legal question seems to be: can an individual state refuse to have a candidate for a Federal election on the ballot of that state? He may be on the ballot of the other states, but not in that state.

MOTORCITY:

My understanding is that the dues will now be automatically deducted from your paycheck whether you are Union or not; and that you still do not have to join a Union. The Union has to represent you whether you are a dues paying Union member or not.

Re: AM Civil Defense pre-1963

My understanding is that 640 was for a 'national' channel, as it is a clear channel; 1240 was for the 'local' channel. There were two 640 transmitters, one on the east coast, and one on the west coast, Every city or area had their own 1240 station. Is this understanding correct?

FAIRBANKS: Are you allowed to increase your antenna height that much? In my area, we are limited to 28 feet above ground for the TV antenna.

Re: WSMH Illegle ID

WDCQ identifies themselves as Bad Axe, followed by Bay City, Saginaw, Midland, and Flint. Bad Axe is technically the COL, even though they are programmed out of Delta College, which is west of Bay City. Bad Axe always comes first; the other 4 are rotated. Sometimes, Bay City comes first, sometimes S...

Re: Self Checkout

If they don't want all that to happen, they should provide a real live person at a regular check out. One person at a check out station for 4 hours vs. somebody having to sort through, restock, trash, etc., what is in the cart. Not to mention the Goodwill by not having nasty word of mouths "don't sh...

I will predict 90 wins for the Tigers, 2nd in the Division, no wild card spot in the playoffs.

Re: Pro-Russia Republican Party?

I will agree with most of the statement at you mentioned that Trump said. I do not agree with the 'rigged elections' part. The elections were not rigged. Trump lost fair and square, because there are some people who do not like him personally. They voted for Biden, not because they like Biden, but b...

Re: Channel 7 provides fake traffic detour to avoid WB M-59 accident

Regarding non-existent interchanges: I have heard several times on WWJ Traffic, when there is an accident on I-75 up north, for recommendations to get off on Maple Road. There are three Maple Roads that cross I-75; none of them have interchanges.

Re: TV62 adds a new subchannel

Does ComCast carry MeTV? I want to watch Hogans Heroes on a larger screen than the one I got now.
