How many years was his show on wowo for?
 
He was at WOWO a couple of times. The first ended in 1986 when he left to buy 106.3 in Columbia City. That failed abruptly in the summer of 1988 and Ron was back at WOWO within a few weeks. He was still at WOWO in the mid 1990s when I had the very brief honor of working with him. According to this article, he was back at 106.3 in the early 2000s. If I’m not mistaken, he wrapped up his career on the South Whitley FM / Huntington AM simulcast prior to Covid. A great talent and the kind of guy who never met a stranger.
