in Chicago on July 12 and nationally on July 16.  Suggested

a new four-year agreement with KHTK-AM to continue as the team's
radio flagship station.  KHTK is owned by VA-based EZ

"virtually doubled" over the past few years, according to the

deal with a Nashville station to have all four preseason games
