[Dog Gone]

But I'm just wondering: If the perp left Moose a phone number, WHY WOULD MOOSE HAVE TO ANNOUNCE IT ON TV? Why would he have to tell the perp: We're ready to take your call? Why not just have someone ready to take that phone call?

The only I reason I can think of is that they've had that number ready (and it has to be the most heavily-bugged phone line in the world right now) since they first found the note and nobody has called.

Maybe they didn't find the note until this morning. That's entirely possible. But nobody has called all day, and Moose felt necessary to prod the shooter.

The sniper does feel invincible and by essentially challenging him to call, it might well happen.

What if it really isn't a phone number but a place?

This perp has been changing his M.O. with each media description thereof.

If the police expect him to call, he probably won't.
