Anyone have the inside scoop on who is up for the gig to replace Kasper?

Could Toby Knapp be returning to the Delaware Valley from South Carolina?<P ID="signature">______________

Isnt Toby the PD of WNOK? If so...don't count it. That wouldnt necessarily be a move up the ladder. I would imagine the pay would be the same.

PD gigs in smaller markets dont pay much; 50k tops. Don't forget Q is a union shop which equals more $$$; I would imagine PM Drive there is anywhere pays a lot more. <P ID="signature">______________

50k for a PD gig at 'NOK?? Wow. I would imagine they'd only offer a PM Drive jock between 65 and 85k. I could be way off, though.

My numbers may be a little off, but no doubt in my mind there's more money to be made doing PM Drive in Market 6 (at a station that bills quite a lot of money and is union) than there is being a PD in Columbia.

Then again, it could be someone else entirely. I just said Toby because I hear his voicetracked show on Q from time to time, but he is a PD and in that respect, it would be a move backwards for him.

Maybe one of the weekenders? Booker? JT Bosh?

JT Bosh is the PD at FM 97, Clear Channel's AC over in Lancaster, why would he leave that, he's happy where he is. Toby was from FM97 `too a few years ago.

That's right! Except FM97 is CHR, not AC.

And JT Bosh is JT Bosch ....
 
Just throwing out guesses. I don't think we've solved the puzzle at all; Toby Knapp personally debunked the theory himself on the South Carolina board (good, he's not that great of a jock in the first place) and I would think if J.T. or Booker were up for it, they'd probably already be auditioning in afternoons by now. (Kasper is still on the site and I heard him Friday)

Simply wanted to open the thread to see if any "insiders" were looming around.

Doesn't Kasper voicetrack a bunch of other markets? Who knows, maybe Q will attempt to save money and have him track the show to Philly from Cleveland? Never know in this day and age of radio. Just a thought.
