December 9, 1976 KCRG - Cedar Rapids

After some months of reviewing my previous laid back performance and tuning my style to an updated station format I relaxed into more of a morning radio sound. (And perhaps drank more coffee.) The results were tangible in the ratings. I dominated the market with an Arbitron rated 36 share and Radio & Records magazine named me Top-40 Secondary Market Personality of The Year in 1977. I also got a job offer from the legendary WFIL in Philadelphia. (A phone call that came the same morning that we purchased our first house.... I turned them down because of that.)
