Neat story! And, rare today.   (Thank you again Boomer for the FWR of this!)    https://www.radioworld.com/news-and-business/news-makers/delilah-revels-in-rediscovering-her-roots

“I am often asked how radio works. Well, you see, wire telegraphy
is like a very long cat. You yank his tail in New York and he
meows in Los Angeles. Do you understand this? Now, radio is
exactly the same, except that there is no cat.”
-Attributed to Albert Einstein, but I ripped it from the latest Splatter .PDF March 2025 issue.

I worked with Delilah at KUGN in Eugene, only her second radio job, doing (among other things) production of her voicetracks for KUGN's "mellow" FM. Aside from being a stellar talent, she's a genuinely nice person. I wish her much success at KDUN.

My college roommates hailed from Reedsport, and then I lived near there in my first job, so I have affection for the town and KDUN. I hope the station thrives now.

While most of its 50 kW daytime signal is aimed at the ocean, it's been very audible within the first hour or so after sunrise up here in Seattle's northeast suburbs during recent weeks. And, yes, lots of local hosts and content during those morning hours.
