On 11/25/83, an unknown male telephonically advised the complaint desk that he had just been listening to [REDACTED] a local radio talk show host, on radio station KSDO, San Diego, California. The unknown caller advised [REDACTED] was engaged in a conversation with a female who lived in the Portland, Oregon, area. The topic of conversation was the annual jamboree held in the Portland area to honor D.B. Cooper's successful extortion of $200,000 from Northwest Airlines on 11/24/71 and his gold exodus by parachute from Northwest Airlines Flight 305 on the same day. During this conversation, [REDACTED] stated he had at one time worked in the Portland, Oregon, area and probably knew D.B. Cooper better than anyone. [REDACTED] further stated he knows D.B. Cooper is in the San Diego area and Cooper had celebrated Thanksgiving yesterday in the San Diego area.

The unknown male caller stated [REDACTED] was very boastful and adamant concerning his knowledge of Cooper.

The male caller also advised [REDACTED] informed the female caller Cooper would not be in attendance at this year's jamboree but was sure Cooper would attend one of the future jamborees, possibly in the next two years.

Any action on this matter is left to the discretion of the Desk.
