    I had the pleasure of meeting Frank A. Gunther in the early 80's when he lived in Staten Island, NY. I was close friens with his grandson of the same name who I also met on CB radio. I marveled at the elder Gunthers radio station in his house on Todt Hill. He also had a huge tower on his property that housed many antenna. Great memories. Thanks RCA!
