FIRST:
Since there is an interest, here is the Date with Johnny Helm winner!
NEXT:
The KFXM and K/MEN surveys from April through December 1970 have already been posted on this blog back in 2008. Starting on April 22, 2008 for KFXM and April 23, 2008 for K/MEN, postings started on a weekly basis until the end of the year of 2008 for the 1970 surveys. They are are still on this blog, so I won't be posting them again.
DIRECTIONS:
Go to the blog archive on the right side, click on the 2008 arrow, click on the word April. Scroll down to April 22 and 23 for the next 1970 surveys. They're all there through December 1970.
FINALLY:
I will now be posting the 1959 KFXM surveys I have. The first and earliest KFXM survey is April 18, 1959. Then in the middle of May I will be posting the two May 1959 surveys I have. Then from the middle of July, until the end of the year, the rest of 1959 KFXM surveys. If anyone can come up April, May, June and the first two weeks in July surveys for me to post I will.

On the blue KFXM folder, it shows a new DJ. "Farley Ferndock", who appears to be the replacement for Conqueror Dave Fransen. What can you tell us about him?

This was on the April 2nd posting, under the D.J. Personal Pick

Farley Ferndock probably didn't exist. Next week it'll be Horace Wink and his personal pick. The following week you'll discover who is new at the station. Stay tuned!!
