Herein, O’Day explains how KYYX/KXA was voice-tracked. In case anyone thought it was live. It sounded disconnected, Ryan & Ryan were mediocre talents at best. Maybe not even cut out for a major market, but it seemed to work in Seattle in 1981 – and voice-tracked. (Sad!)
Last I heard, he was selling real estate in Kent. Gary’s real name is Gordon Stephens. I find no information regarding his passing. Do you have source?
Ryan, Ryan, Linton, Stephens, Bob, Gary… you are correct. It appears he did pass away. The KBSG Reunion in his honor happened this month, based on that Facebook post.
