WOWO also was one of the first stations that I DXed. That was in the '80s, when I still lived on Long Island. I remember the "We'll make your day" slogan. I also remember Dugan Fry (sp.?), but I can't remember when he was with the station.
After I moved to Columbia, Mo., I often would listen to WOWO around midnight, when I was unwinding after work. That was in the mid-1990s, and I would call every now and then to request a song. Hard to believe that was only 10 years ago. -----Original Message----- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of Blaine Thompson Sent: Friday, November 09, 2007 10:29 PM To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Cc: [email protected] Subject: Re: [IRCA] WOWO 1190 On Fri, 9 Nov 2007, Paul B.

However, they did have a live overnight DJ playing music until March, 1996.
