MessageRecently at a book sale in N.C. I bought a book (some kind of textbook) which had a cover on it evidently from the 60's or the 70's which must have been supplied by KROY radio. A removable paper cover in red and gold/tan with names of rock bands -- Jeff. Airplane, Grateful Dead, Byrds,, Stone Ponies, Moby Grape, etc. -- and record companies -- Reprise, RCA Victor, Columbia -- with graphics in 60's style. I thought some KROY fans might like to have it for their memorabilia collection. Phone 828-648-6942 and leave a message.

MessageI loved KROY as a child, idolized the deejays and had the amazing luck of joining them behind the window on Arden Way when I was still a teenager in 1970. Now, nearly 35 years later I'm still in radio and my days at KROY remain the highlight of my career. KROY provided me with a unique insight into the heart and soul of radio that few people I've known in the business ever had. And we summed it up in three little words:

...Because KROY cares.

Message'SHUT THE CAVE DOOR AND BACK TO PIGMY COUNTRY!!!' My name? Buffalo... whataya mean what kinda name is Buffalo?

Bob Burch where are you? Does KROY have any tapes of shows I can buy from, say 1960 - 1963? I have looked on the Internet and can't find some of the popular songs you played. One had the lyric: Chicago Cha Cha... and another was about the year (title)? 1963. Those were the best years to be alive (however, I had no choice). PLEASE HELP ME W/ MY INQUIRIES! smilie

MessageI am the eldest son of Chuck Roy. If you enjoyed him as a DJ then you have only a glimpse of how wonderful he is to have as a dad. You know how he would always just stop short of sharing the meaning of life, well... he does know it. He has shared it with me. He, the meaning of life, is Jesus Christ. Read my father's bio on this site and you might find that the hound of heaven is looking for you also.

Like the finest of everything - my father Chuck Roy, as my mother still calls him, have grown even better with age.

MessageKROY was one of the first radio stations I ever
listened to starting in 1974. I was thrilled to be a contestant on the air a few times in 1975
for a contest called the Win Ten Bin. You had to guess all ten big prizes based on clues to win them all. I didn't win but it was an idea I used
when I became Program Director of KWOD in the 90s. I briefly was on the air as a weekender at KROY in 1990 when it was called Hot 97 which seemed to play the bottom 40 instead of the top 40. That's probably why KROY finally died that year.

MessageI grew up down the street from KROY Way, right by Hiram Johnson HS. Glad they'll never change the name!
