I stumbled onto your Louisville Radio web site. It brought back a lot of memories.
Back in the '70s, I used to hang out at WKLO from time to time. I knew the late Rusty Rodgers pretty well from the University of Louisville. I remember one evening sitting in the WLKO studio with Steve Avery. A car full of girls parked in front of the window and mooned us. Steve opened up the mike and said "We just got word from the National Weather Service, the moon is out tonight." The girls got a good laugh out of that.
I love the site.

Thanks for the time and effort it takes to put together and maintain a Web Museum such at the one for WKLO and WAKY. I didn’t realize what I was getting into when I started through the photos.
As it is, I am from Paintsville, KY and started my career at WSIP in 1967 several years after Bill Love had left for WLAP in Lexington.
I came to Lexington in 1970 to go to UK and got a job in television at the then WBLG-TV and now WTVQ-DT.
I spent a year at WLAP myself watching the transmitter and met Dave White just before he left. We later worked together at WTVQ.
I also crossed paths with Ron Lake while at WLAP and Bill Crisp, Rich Gimmel, and Woody Stiles at WTVQ. I remember Woody telling me that once in TV, I’d never go back to radio, but it wasn’t long before he left and went to WAKY. Go figure.
Since I never lived in Louisville, most of the folks in the museum I don’t know, but heard of. But being the techie that I am, the photos of control rooms and such are great to look at.
Thanks again.
