As a young student of radio broadcasting, it seemed to me that Garabedian's
tenure at WMEX was sort of legendary.  Whether it's true or not I don't know,
but he spoke to my radio class at Grahm about how the station was beating
'RKO at the time he was PD.  He talked a lot about the comparitively poor
signal 'MEX had as compared to 'RKO, and stated that the signal "problem" was
not a major consideration, that if you give people something they really want
to hear, they'll turn their radio or whatever to hear it.  That simple theory
may still stand today.
