[WIP] Old time radio entertainment station

Doing some tests in game with a radio station at Los Angeles' latitude and longitude, the power portion of the radio.ini line

Antenna=01.01.1930-01.01.2000:34.05,-118.22:100000

is in nautical miles.

With my created radio station in L.A. and a power of 100, I had to sail to right off the coast within 100 miles of the the approximate latitude and longitude to tune in the station.

You'll be able to tune to the frequency when out of range, but you'll get the static noise. Once you get within range, the station will come in. Cool thing was when I tuned it in, a program already in progress was picked up. Very realistic.

A few changes before I get ready to upload this thing somewhere....I need to change the latitude and longitude to hollywood from LA, I need to put in and test a power that will feed this station to somewhere short of Japanese waters, and I might change the broadcast days from Sundays to the 1st, 7th, 14th, 21st, and 28th considering there is no real way to know when sundays are in game.
