Woah, that was quite a bump that I wasn't expecting. There are a few more commercials that I found and added to my YouTube favorites playlist. One was
another spot starring Symba Smith done for Triple M in Australia around 2002.
The second was a followup spot for Detroit's WRIF circa 1982 with Kelly Harmon, and the
most recent I one found was for Denver classic rocker KKHK ("The Hawk", now KQMT "The Mountain") in 1999, again with Symba.
Both Kelly Harmon & Deborah Shelton worked commercials in the Jackson, Miss. market for a huge country music station Q103 or 106. It's been a long time since I saw them.
That is a great addition to my little compendium – thanks! Is the station you're referring to possibly Miss 103, which reverted to a country format around 1981? From my own searches, I haven't been able to identify either a Q103 or Q106 in that market at that time.
I've also since found out that Kelly Harmon filmed a spot for C-101 in Corpus Christi sometime in the early 80s. WNAV in Annapolis advertised itself as a "remarkable radio station" in newspapers in 1980, though there is no footage available for me to know if that market ran its own variation of the spot. WIBA in Madison, WI had its own RM in 1991, but I have no information as to which actress starred in the commercial. Teresa Blake, the
All My Children actress who filmed a remake spot for WRIF in 1992, starred in an ad for country station WFGY ("Froggy 98") in Altoona, PA around the same time. Symba Smith was also featured in ads for Milwaukee's Lazer 103 (WLZR) in 1999 and 2000.
