Carmen Harlan before her days with WDIV Detroit TV...

Yep, WABX was 99.5 and WLLZ was 98.7. Other incarnations of 99.5 include "Class FM" [[failed miserably). WDTX, the Fox [[good ratings but poor sales, went into receivership) and WOWF, or WOW-FM, which tried to be an FM Talker but lasted about 5 months. Why do I remember this useless crap and forget my wife's birthday?

Trivia: what was the last song played on WABX in Detroit? "When the Music's Over" by The Doors.

Do not forget Dave Dixon's last radio stint at WDET. His mantra was "Don't tip the gag" which meant every music sequence was to be a surprise.

After WDET let him go, he finished his career as a shuttle bus driver at Metro Airport.
