OUR 50TH ANNIVERARY RADIO WINNER FOR THE APRIL RADIO IS JIM ROHL.
IT HAS A WEATHER FREQUENCY AND HE HAS WANTED A RADIO WITH THIS FEATURE.
JIM AND HIS BETTER HALF, JANICE, ARE NEWCOMERS TO JACKSON COUNTY.
THEY MOVED TO A RURAL HOME THEY PURCHASED LAST FALL JUST NORTHEAST OF MAQUOKETA. MOVED HERE FROM DOWNER'S GROVE, NEAR CHICAGO. THEY LIKE TO RIDE UP AND DOWN THE MISSISSIPPI RIVER WITH THEIR MOTORCYCLE AND
DECIDED THEY WOULD LIKE TO LIVE IN THIS AREA INSTEAD OF IN THE BIG CITY.
JIM IS A NICE GUY AND I'M SURE I WOULD LIKE JANICE TOO. MAYBE WILL ALSO MEET HER SOMETIME. AND HOPE THEY BOTH ENJOY KMAQ ON THEIR NEW RADIO.
YES...IT IS ALRIGHT IF THEY TUNE-IN A CHICAGO POWER STATION ONCE IN AWHLE
ALSO. JIM, IF YOU GET A CHANCE, TELL US MORE ABOUT YOURSELF (AND JANICE)ON THE KMAQ GUEST BOOK.
