Supporting page for December 2012 Monitoring Times feature article
I was asked to write a feature article for the December 2012 issue of Monitoring Times. The article is titled Sixty Years of Lafayette Radio. Due to magazine space limitations, only a few supporting images could be incorporated in the article. This page supports a variety of images mostly in date order that coincide with portions of the article.
