[BC] The future of broadcasting...

[Tom Dimeo]

Several years ago WHYL 960 Carlisle Pennsylvania carried the 
Alan Gray doo-woppin oldies format. Is the format still 
around? I loved the music even though it was all automated 
and usually I can't take much audimation. I actually 
purchased quite a number of songs after hearing them on the 
station. They were songs I hadn't heard since the fifties or 
early sixties -- songs that were hits but never played 
anywhere else.
