Re: [IRCA] Radio listening when not Dxing

Dennis,

As I have been getting older through the years, I have moved from music
to talk also. I used to listen to talk on KGO, but I would always move
back to a good Top 40 station with a lot of R&B. KSWB Seaside plays a
good mix of oldies now, as well as KITI Chehalis WA. I find myself
listening to many talk shows on KGO, except for Dr. Bill, not a fan of
him. But the rest you mentioned I do listen to. Coast to Coast has
always been fun, depending on the subject. Bob interviewed Art Bell a
couple of times on the phone for articles he did for Radio World. Bruce
Williams I have met at talk show conventions. We went to one in LA I
think it was back in the 90s. Bruce is a very nice person, much like he
is on the air. We sat in on the Tom Leykis show in LA a time or two.
Also visited with him at KOTK-1080 Portland when he was doing his show
on the road. 
   Growing up, I was a fan of the Drake sound on stations like "93 KHJ"
and "610 KFRC". Those were the fun days in radio. As music director at
KVAS Astoria, I would drive up to Seattle about once a month to visit
the record reps at ABC Record & Tape Sales, UA, RCA, WB. Gee, those were
fun days. Catching the latest new music on stations like "KJR Seattle,
Channel 95" and  "Colorful KOL".
