Fabulous! I remember listening to it live on my car radio on a drive from Rockford to the Quad Cities during a business trip.

I haven't had time to listen to the whole thing, but parts 3 & 4 with Howard Miller were especially interesting. Among the tidbits....him talking about buying WIND from Westinghouse. And his claiming that at one time WIND had a 58% share. I wonder if anyone can document that!
 
Fabulous memories! I listened to WIND from the 50s thru the 80s. It was a great radio station in that era.

Thank you for sharing this.
