I'm impressed with the work of the person or people responsible for arranging all of those jingles so that they flow together. And I know there are at least a few folks who read me who may or may not read Chaz, who would appreciate it.
p.s. WUBE is a country radio station in Cincinnati owned by broadcasting giant Bonneville International, which happens to be the station included in the song with which I'm most familiar.

KOST is still very much that "sound" last I knew.

WEZO-FM 101.3, WNYR-AM 990 (Fmr 680), WUHF-TV 31 were Bonneville stations I worked for in the 80s! They sold them off to Malright Broadcasting, then Grace Broadcasting (then things went downhill fast).
I'm glad you enjoyed the JAM Song! I was so happy to find it. To this day, I remember hearing (sing-songally) "Zorp Furble!! -- Andromeda!" and Joe Flemming and I just about pissed outselves!
Ask me about 716-222-0400 someday in private --- "You're caller number 98!!!!"

As far as I know, the downhill slope continues.

At 360 East Ave, WEZO/WNYR were on the 2nd floor, WUHF was on the 3rd. We were owned by the same company and shared some employees.
Tim "Kincaid" was the morning drive personality on WNYR (country format) as well as the host (known as "Ranger Bob", think 'Krusty the Clown' from the Simpsons) on a kid's afternoon cartoon show called 'The Buckaroo Club'
Tim moved to Orlando, FL around 1989.

What did you do at Channel 8?
Are they still on Humbolt Street?
Was Randy the Chief Engineer when you left?
Where do you live now?
Are you still in Broadcast Media?
Why do I ask so many questions?
Why ask why?
I worked in the engineering (master control) and production (technical director, audio engineer) depts.
Ch. 8 is still on Humboldt Street.
Ch. 31 moved from East Avenue to Humboldt Street the fall of 2005. I left the area in November 2005, when
I've tried for 3 years to find a job in broadcasting in this market with no success.
Right now, I'm taking a few computer courses (Database Applications) and, hopefully, make a well-needed career change. As much as I am still interested in media, the politics of the broadcasting business really wore me down. Considering what has been going on lately, I'm glad that I left the business.
I do remember you from RCL and the Rams. We've crossed paths but not had any long conversations.
Thanks for responding. Take care.
Re: Why ask why?
Wow! Cool!
I wish you all the best with getting a better career than what the FCC has allowed big business to to to broadcast media.
I'm glad someone remembers me from RCL and the Rams! ;-)
