Seems to me the PL was a few more telephone poles down, but good catch.

Ron was an incredible guy. He worked for me for a few years in the late 80's early 90's. "Your Little Bitty Buddy" was his self effacing radio moniker.

When he was at FM100 he transitioned over to TV News Assignment Editor.
He spent hours on end monitoring the Police & Fire Scanners for stories.

He left behind a sweet daughter that honors his memory.
