Physician's Radio Network is dead
yale-comix!leichter made reference to PRN - the Physicians's
Radio Network.  to receive this channel, you needed a decoder
that was only given to doctors (and they received it for free).
because of the controlled audience, the programming could be at a
very technical level.  i believe the network was funded by
selling commercials to the pharmaceutical companies.  i am under
the impression that the network is now defunct even though they
were not losing money - reason unknown.
