With the closing of Fort Myers Broadcasting Company’s $8 million purchase of Soft AC “Wave 101.1” WAVV Naples Park/Fort Myers FL, a number of staffers have exited the station.
Only morning host Paul Conrad and a couple members of the WAVV sales team have made the move with the station to the new ownership as FMBC has already moved the station’s operations into its studios with AC 96.9 WINK-FM Program Director Chuck Knight adding those duties for WAVV and Beautiful Music “Easy 107.9” W300EF Naples/WAVV-HD2.
Among the WAVV staffers departing are OM/midday host Kenny Lamb and Chief Engineer/afternoon host Al Baxa. Lamb had been with WAVV since 1987 with Baxa joining a year later after both previously worked at then 103.1 WSGL Naples.
