Johnny Gray married a high school friend of my wife.
I became friends with him, somewhat, when WYDE was broadcasting from 2101 Magnolia Avenue. The company I worked for was on the 2nd floor and WYDE was on the 5th floor. Duke Rumore was chasing all the females in the building, but he never caught any that I know of...
If I remember correctly, when WILD was changed to WYDE, it had a sister station in Atlanta with the call letters of WAKE making the two stations WYDE AWAKE.
