Actually,I don't think any of the Blakeney brothers worked together in our building. Larry was first.(Wasn't Mike on briefly?)Maybe the boys will post and let us know! Can remember only one time that brothers worked for JDX/MSI at the same time, and one of them was in sales and it may not count.

Pat, maybe somebody's got one of those big TM reels with four hours or so of the Miss103 format on it. Sure there's a reel to reel out there that still works. I do remember that the first day or so it seemed we played "Battle of New Orleans" WAAAAAY too much.

Radeeyohead speaks the truth. A nasty legal battle is a brewin'. The cauldron once simmered, now the bubbles race frantically through the air as the witch cackles with pure delight. Grab a beverage of choice and kick back for a spell. This is going to be HUGE!!!

Right on the money! That's funny and sad at the same time.

The only way that would work is if they could promise 166 remotes a year at $150/ea - Thats roughly 3 a week. Do they do that many?
