Mike is talking about the former WFMJ, which was also briefly WHOT-AM. then
WRTK, and now WNIO in a typical Clear Channel musical callsigns switch. The
beautiful original 1390 site with six self-supporting Truscon towers was
dynamited 10+ years ago so that Boardman, Ohio could have yet another plaza to
add to the daily traffic gridlock there.
