Urgent situation regarding former Memphis personality

Q

qid937

All:

It is with regret I inform all that Airchexx.com is in need of a new buyer or our home for vintage radio may disappear. Per a special announcement on it's website, Achexx webmaster Steve West states that he is looking for a buyer due to serious financial difficulties. Mr. West is also making an urgent plea for donations to help him and his family squeak by in these hard times.

While I do not feel it is appropriate to sepculate or criticize his situation, anyone willing to help Mr. West through a donation or anyone with the time and proper backing to buy the Airchexx site should immideatly head over to Airchexx.com and click the line for the announcement at the very top above the logo for the most recently posted aircheck. Here Mr. West explains the situation in greater detail and provides a link for pay pal donations.

Thank you for your time, consideration and generosity to Mr. West.

PS: I post this here due to Steve West's previous radio connection with Memphis as a personality on some Memphis stations.

I'll be honest with you, airchecks should be "Public Domain". I know lots of folks will disagree here but that's the way I feel about it.

Has Mr. West talked to the guy that that owns reelradio.com. He just asked for donations to keep up the expense of the site and music rights. He may want to talk to that guy that owns reelradio and see if he is interested in a buyout.
 
Nothing against Mr. West, but I do encourage him to talk with 'Uncle Ricky' at www.reelradio.com, as it is recognized as the 501 organization of Top-40 history, via the 'air-check' (scoped and unscoped)... The past few years have seen the courts look at 'air-checks' as 'public domain' and recouping costs for purchased analog and digital air-checks can only be asked for in 'donation' for cost of copies.....
