Re: The new home of the WMEX Calls

If I am not mistaken those jingles cannot be used on the air without a
financial arrrangement between the estate of Bill Meeks, the session singers
and the current owners of the Pams rights.  Ken only owned the collector
rights for the Pams jingles and not the broadcast rights for anything but
the resings (which he also relinquished last year).  I know that WLLH wanted
to use some of the old jingles and we found the cost prohibitive.
