Syndicated conservative talk-show hosts Jim Quinn & Rose Tennent are off the air. News reports indicate that their contracts were not renewed (either they could not agree to terms with Clear Channel, or they were fired)

Quinn is W3VEX. AE7Q shows his previous call was WA2VEX, although I thought the louse had a 3rd district 2x3 at one point.

Unfortunately, they'll probably replace him with someone worse.
Yep. About a year ago the BJU radio station was bought out or partnered with and now it's a powerhouse GOP Conservative Talk station on the lower part of the FMBCB right beside all the weaker PBS stations.
They carry all the Fire and Brimstone nutballs of the GOP's Fire Brand.

It may be purely a coincidence, but Quinn was working as a radio DJ at KQV AM about the same time as another radio schmuck, going by the name at the time of Jeff Christie.
20 years ago, he was teamed with another character as the "Quinn & Bannana Show" on B-94FM (now KDKA FM), which for over a decade was the top FM morning show in Pittsburgh. They got involved in a lawsuit for sexual harrassment with the news reader (they lost, which cost them quite a few shekels). At one point, they entered and exited the station under covers in the back of a pickup-truck driven by the assistant Chief Engineer, to avoid being served. (That ham was the best man at my wedding).
Anyway, after he left B94, he fell on some difficult times... I seem to recall a news report that said his income had dropped by something like 90%, and he'd had to sell his house. But the "war room" gig had revived his career.
And yes, he's a louse. He stiffed me on a call-in trivia question once, and my friend (the ass't CE) once "loaned" him several of my novelty 45's... which I never got back.

Nice.
Question. I should know the answer to this but I don't.
Why does a broadcast station in PA have a "K" callsign?
They paid the Vanity fee?

Very cool, Tim.
Thanks!
I've given up listening to anything on FM other than college radio - luckily, between Duke, UNC, NCSU and NCCU in full-quieting range there's enough stuff to be interesting.
