Name the Celebs!? – >Clue #2
Ok, so a few have guessed our blonde hunk-a-burnin’-love, and one even guessed the leader of the Disco trio (Dave & Sugar!—lookitup!) but understandably no correct guesses on ‘curly’. So, he’s a radio veteran, and real Veteran, and not a stranger to the Jive airwaves. New guesses must contain the names of both schmoes. 
Ok, so only one person has guessed only one of the 2 schmoes, so here’s some clues:
-in the pic above our man schmoe is also pictured with a somewhat popular trio back in the day, and,
-in the pic below, the guy with the blonde wig and chest toupeé and stoned look is now a somewhat well-known right-wing troubadour.
The first 3 Jivers that name these 2 schmoes get a free 3-song set at noon on a day of their choice! Send your entries to me at: laz@jiveradio.org [Friends or family of the two, or either of the two, or anyone working for Kellogg’s/Quaker Oats is prohibited from participating.]
A real radio burnout
Just a few days ago wildfire swept right through the lower Willamette Valley and toasted several hundred lower income homes and trailer parks along a corridor around I-5 and OR99. Tragic. This shot is what’s left of JPR’s transmit facility. This is just baked metal boxes. The human toll is crushing, and only one little spot on a giant map of disasters. >Here’s some more sad poop on the disaster in Southern OR.
R.I.P. Beverly Osborn, Gerlach’s Grande Dame
We’re a little late on reporting from the Gerlach trapline, but our favorite bar owner in the world died earlier in July. Here’s a story from the Reno paper from a few weeks back, and an interview with Bev from a few years back.
Our KLAP audience is one big sweet soul lighter now. We hope the best for her cats.
I want a new drug.
A little bit (more) Bend be okay:
Even though the blue line above represents the theoretical listening area (contour thru Bend Bend) to the FCC, KJIV’s [96.5FM] real reception south of the Trader Schmoe’s Shop-N-Clusterplex has been terrible, we now have a little booster transmitter in Bend which gives at least a little more candlepower into downtown Bend.
We’d love feedback from our ears on the ground whether living in or traveling around, let us know where it’s bad or better or good or worse where you’re at. What the 96.5 Jive waves be doing in your radio?
