• For the most part, PNW radio personalities had conversational deliveries.
  Name one "puker" in Seattle-Tacoma radio. I don't recall any.

  • Chris Lane

    • I don't remember him that well.

  • . . . and be the life of your next dinner party. Puker?

    Only sure definition I had of “puker” was me all over the dashboard after four or five guzzles of Jim Beam ($4.80 a fifth back then). So I did a web search.

    Radio guy with a "radio voice" and a phony "warm" delivery with mouth wide open, crisp pronunciation and a smile? Takes diaphragmatic breathing to an offensive level?

    I can think of only one in Seattle radio if I'm close to the definition.

    • Who would that one person have been?

• April 2004 - KGHO AM 920/Olympia changes call letters to KGTK and format from oldies to a simulcast of MegaTalk KITZ AM 1400/Silverdale.

• September 2000 - KCMS FM 105.3/Edmonds moved their transmitter to Cougar Mountain. Power has been lowered to compensate for the increased height. They were the last FM station in this area with a grandfathered power output - 115,000 watts. The current allowable maximum is 100,000.
