And while were listening to Tom, I have added some slides, still pictures and 8mm film clips to the mix. The air check of Tom is probably circa early 1978 from the tunes played. The pictures span a time frame from late 1975 to 1979. Note the evolution of the control room mic from an RCA 77-DX, a Shure SM series to the popular Sennheiser MD 421. Tom West was a flamboyant
but well respected broadcaster having worked with Paul Drew and RKO, The Storz chain at KOMA and WQAM and of course Rounsaville Radio at WFUN Miami and the program director of BJ-105 Orlando.
