late night talk (was Jerry Williams)

[kvahey@comcast.net]

Jean was on WNAC for a couple of years but it was simply a simulcast
of his WOR show. RKO actally had a decicated microwave relay between
WOR and WNAC that was used on occasion by both radio & TV.

TV used it for such shows as Al Capp and the ill fated Dave Garroway show.

The relay was first built in the early 60's to feed sporting events
from both NY and Boston to RKO's pay station in Hartford.
