I wish I'd been listening to KFXM in November of 1959, but, I was still a little over a year away from becoming a radio freak, since I didn't get a transistor radio until the NEXT Christmas (late December of 1960).<br /><br />I was always impressed how "someone" (perhaps the director of tunesheet color schemes) managed to juggle the print colors and background colors so that it would be so long between "repeats."<br /><br />These were the FUN and EXCITING days of Top 40 radio and there will never be another era such as this.<br /><br />Thanks for all the great work. You bring back so many GREAT MEMORIES!!<br /><br />Bruce Chandler DG's KOOL GOLD and KRTH 101 (and former 2-6pm KFXM deejay late 1971-early 1974 :-)Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-28230378.post-58479043059700181422010-12-03T20:32:49.565-08:002010-12-03T20:32:49.565-08:00OOPS! make that Tiger Mag issue date to be 15 Nove...OOPS! make that Tiger Mag issue date to be 15 November 1968!<br />(a slip of the fingers, a typo)Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-28230378.post-88612704509267280382010-12-03T20:16:06.317-08:002010-12-03T20:16:06.317-08:00"In late 1961, KFXM Broadcasting Company acqu..."In late 1961, KFXM Broadcasting Company acquired KDUO Stereo FM in order to provide an even wider range of service to Southland residents."<br /><br />(from The KFXM Tiger Mag dated<br />November 15, 1958, Vol.5 No.45)Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-28230378.post-79079332495468788972010-12-03T10:32:35.681-08:002010-12-03T10:32:35.681-08:00When did KDUO come into the
