The only time I heard him was driving to an evening class I took. Entertaining for the 3 months of the class. I guess he was on a 1Kw station in a city that I drove by on an interstate.
No signal from that station on the way home.
Jones...
I would come across on SW, hawking his dvds.
Bell...
He went really nuts after his 2nd wife died. Not that he was wasn't tightly wound before, but the quality of his sporadic weekend/guest appearances went straight downhill. His replacements during his "retirements" went from bad to mediocre, and the remnants of the show have generally been unlistenable for years.
The "area" CC simulcasting talkers were sold a few years back. FM went to stereo music, and the AM lost Rush, but kept C2CAM.
I got out of the USAF just before Christmas 1963, and was immediately drawn to WKNR. They played my kind of music. The Motown Summer of 1964 saw Keener in the forefront of the Motown movement.
