CKLW had a standout sound, for sure. It used to bomb into the Boston area at
night. I loved their ID: CKLW the motor city! I never med ED, but my ex boss,
Dan Griffin knew him welland told me that he was one of the best engineer that
he had ever worked with. If Dan says so, then it is surely true!
We're all getting old, guys. I turned 54 a week ago. Many of you are older
then me. I also fear that we represent the last generation of broadcast
engineers.
We're literally a dying breed.
