Phew!  And all in one breath? It was Noble Broadcasting, San Diego, that bought
99.5 from original owner, Arnold Lerner from 19.5 mill, considered a huge price
then. Lerner would then buy 94.5 with 4 mill. still left in the bank from the
WSSH sale.  Not sure who he bought it from since that was after 94.5 swapped
studios with 92.9. 92.9 and 850 would cohabitate the Stuart Street studios under
separate ownership for a time. <Memory fogging up SFX out>
