Sirott was on WBBM-FM in 1971. We had the station on in the art class in my high school. I guess he wasn't iconic then, though I thought he was pretty good.

When Sirott worked at WBBM-FM in the early 70s he first used the name Robert R Bradley before the station gave him a regular morning gig. Then he used his real name. Steve King was the afternoon personality. The both went to WLS in 1973.
