I would do summer missions in Tampa Bay and listened with a grin, as I hosted a CCM show when I returned to Indiana (on the mainstream station I worked for...

It spurred me into CCM and I did that Sunday AM show until I was hired to help buildout and jock at the first Way-Fm (WAYJ in Fort Myers)....Then back to Nashville with Way-Fm (WAYM)...Larry lost the stuff to a boogie man, and God gave it back many fold....

A few years later, they had a Christian oldies show. Both long gone - KSBJ just a shell of its former greatness. I wasn't in Houston to hear about what happened to those excellent shows - but I know there were frequent Bill Gothard seminars in the area. No doubt somebody complained somewhere - that KSBJ was too creative, too edgy, too much fun. OK kids, we have to take our spiritual medicine now. I am back in Houston - KSBJ is not even on my presets. That wimpy CCM on satellite is better. How I wish KSBJ would use an HD-2 channel for something more creative! Now THAT would prompt a whole lot of people down here to actually buy HD radios in their car, including me!

I came in on the tail end of WCIE's great period, unfortunately after the "raid", but still a pretty decent station even though they had their slow music period in the evenings that I tuned out.
