Thanks for the info...makes sense I guess....He was full-time there
once before his newspaper gig,then he left to pursue that...I wonder if
he'll do anything with the station at all?...I know he used to have a
nascar show on Saturdays...I like the overall sound of the show,but whoever
is pushing the buttons needs to keep the mics turned up a bit...especially
Jacobys...
