WOWO tribute website is online

Boy everyone is bringing back memories of the summit city. I worked for WGL from 73 to 76 and remember all the WOWO staff. Think a couple of our news staff went there. Also WLYV with Jay Walker. We use to chuckle when we all found out his real name of Herb Brebander. Enjoyed my 3 years in Ft. Wayne and wish the opportunity would have come up at WOWO where they wanted to hire a first phone to do the all night shift at the xmitter site. Almost applied for that one.
 
The tribute site seems to overlook Carol Ford who was on the air at wowo during mid 1970's.. Her voice was like magic
 
Two hours of Carol Ford from Memorial Day Weekend, 1977 are now on the site (a "WOWO Happy Days Weekend"). Excellent audio quality!

There are a lot of Carol fans out there, but so far, not many airchecks! We would love to have more!
 
Listening to Carol right now...My goodness, she was fantastic! A couple years after she left WOWO, I saw her briefly on some TV show where they had some sort of "World's Fastest Talking DJ" contest. (I think she was working somewhere in NYC at the time.) The only other person I remember on the show was Larry Lujack. There's no info about her on the History Of WOWO airstaff page, i. e. no link to any info. I've always wondered what became of her.

Edited To Add: I just did my due Google diligence, and there's a Carol Ford listed as part of the DJ lineup on the Sirius "Soul Town" channel. No picture, but I bet that's her!
