"Anne sent me your web site....enjoyed all the "stuff". The WIRV signal would come in over
several appliances and old record player in our house."

"Loved the walk down memory lane on your website. Be sure to keep June 21 available for
the school-wide reunion. We are hoping to have it in the "study hall" at IHS. More later."

Dave,
" I really enjoyed your trip down memory lane, which most of us at 60 tend to want to do more of. I
think the most memorable of all with WIRV was the Saturday night Sock Hops, at the armory in
Ravenna. What a great time and what a real outlet for the kids. In a time when we are all
searching for things to occupy our follow on generations with, maybe someone would get the
message here and start that process all over again. I might even spend a Saturday night or two
myself reliving those trips down memory lane, and what great memories they were. Thanks Dave
to you and all the people you mention on your web site for they all participated during those
Saturday night departures from the week of School.

While browsing the Internet this morning, I discovered your site (which looks like a real treasure for
local broadcasters) and found Bill's name. I do recall learning that Bill spent some time in
broadcasting while at Irvine and it was interesting to your read your comments about him. By the
way, I occasionally have contact with South Bevins. South's son, Wade Bevins, is an executive at a
local bank (First State Financial) and I see Wade rather regularly. South is a local broadcasting icon
and it was interesting to see and hear his comments on your site. You have certainly created an
archive of information that must be priceless for those who spent time on the air in Estill County and
Madison County.

Sure am enjoying your home page on the computer. I remember the Trading Post, especially the old
people who use to call in each day with numerous things to sell and trade. Your site allows us to go
back down memory lane. The song you played for the Trading Post was a great Piece. It gave us
country folks a new chance to enjoy this type music. I am sure it will always be remembered by us
listeners who always included this program in our daily schedules.

I got this from an email and really enjoyed taking the trip down memory lane from my home town. I
hope you add to this or make more, if you do please keep my email address and send it to me.
Thanks, Patricia (Estes) Rose. I now live in Madison Co., but proud to be an old Irvine girl. It sure has
died down and changed a lot. I would love to see it as it was in the 60`s. Thank you.
