Hello George!
 
I've fallen behind on Knoxville Radio History 101 the last few months and I'm catching up tonight. Really appreciate that you've continued to maintain this website. Between your site and Facebook, I've made contact with a large number of old radio friends. For example, I talked to both Eddie Beacon and Ed Brantley on the phone this week for the first time in a couple of years. Plus, Facebook has allowed me to touch base with old radio buddies from around the world that I haven't talked to in 10, 20, 30 years (I'll stop there!). By way of an update, I'm devoting my life to bluegrass music these days. I launched a syndicated show, "Bluegrass Gospel USA!", around Labor Day. We're up to 16 stations now and steadily growing.  (www.BluegrassGospelUSA.com). Missionary work. I'm still doing The Bill Miller Show on WAMU's Bluegrass Country in Washington, DC on HD Channel 2. We just showed up in the People Meter in DC (maybe the first HD channel in the USA to do so???). Also close to launching a new syndicated bluegrass show. Keep up the great work!
