I've read and heard about the revolving door at WGST. Has things settled down now? Is it worth looking into? And is Steve Versnick still there?

Thanks.

...and if you want to run board for ALL of the Braves games (which means you can't leave the room for three+ hours). Ugh.
 
Interesting that this is the 2nd year that C.C Atlanta has been carrying the Braves, and they are on their 2nd Producer/Engineer for the Braves broadcasts. Brad Golder is there now, but I think there was a guy named Steve their last year? Wonder what's going on? Leave WGST out of this, because everyone knows that the Braves and C.C. consider 96rock the main Flagship.

Not sure about Dave Baker, but Rick Shaw works for the Falcons Radio Network.
