Now that would be awesome!  He came to a couple tailgates, and gave me a shout out on his radio show once that I heard during my drive to Knoxville for a game one season.   :thumbup: :biggrin: :thumbup:

I hear him when I am in that area. 

Really liked the guy a lot.  Had lunch with him a couple of times when I was in Tri-Cities on business back when he was active here.

If i remember right his name is John.  I got together with him for a few beers in Long Beach, CA when he was visiting for an awards show.  I'll never forget when I moved back to Merryland 12 yrs ago and got back in touch with him via email.  We exchanged a few emails back to back and I told him that I was listening to WQUT online.  I put in a request for "Barracuda" and sure enuff, it was the next song out the pipe!  I thought that was so cool.  I drive down to E TN a couple of times a year and always tune in to his station when I go through the tri-city area.  I was listening just a couple of months ago and the DJ was "John".  I was pretty sure it was him, but I dunno.  I shoulda called into the station I suppose.  If anyone sees him, please tell him the old CAVol (James) said hello.

Speaking of Maryland, what are you doing now that Messenger has "landed" on Mercury?   Are you working the extended New Horizons mission or on to bigger and better things?

I grew up listening to WQUT. What a blast from the past to hear those call signs.
