So what happened to so what happened to guys like Jim Reed Is he still on the air and the same for all of the other DJ’s???
No wonder I couldn’t find Kool 101. I’ve been looking for 3 days. Was ready to blame my son for messing up my stations. I loved the banter with Jim Reed, the ability to call in for various reasons…and the music was not too hard on these old ears. Local road information and local weather was a big help to me to traveling to and from work. Now I have to tune into Bridgeport or West Hartford. Doesn’t help me much between Westbrook and New London. And just where is Jim Ree????
