Re: stations still using carts

["Gary" <gff@mediaone.net>]

Although we still have a working cart machine in the control room and one in
the production studio we do not use them - we are using the Cartready system
from WSI.  The leased time ethnic shows still run some of their spots on
cart.  I have pretty much removed all our carts from the working studios and
boxed them up in the "radio museum" at the rear of the station.
