I was general manager of KSJU-FM during my senior year, 1979-1980. You should add that when we went to FM in 1977 (using the old KSJN tower) we were only FM-mono because we didn't have a stereo board. We had a fund raising campaign ("Marathon for Stereo") in the fall of 1978 that raised enough funds to purchase an FM board, which was installed by Dan Sis over a weekend. Going to stereo was a huge accomplishment. We all said we were no longer "playing radio." As you wrote, we had a huge staff, and we had a lot of fun, with paid sponsorships from companies in St. Cloud, annual on-air anniversary celebrations, and an annual staff dinner and dance. We had a diverse programming offering, including football games, debates, twice-daily newscasts, and broadcasts from CSB to hype our anniversaries. We were in the basement of the auditorium (northeast corner) in a dumpy studio that we loved with outdated, worn out equipment, until we bought the new board. As you wrote, we were completely student run. Unfortunately, we owed the University money for several years as we struggled to pay off the board. Also, I believe that our range was greater than 35 miles (something about the old KSJN tower multiplying our signal seven times, to over 100 miles - 10 watts turned into 77 watts -- my roommate was our engineer). The last time I was on campus I saw that you are still using the FM board that we purchased in the seventies. Roger 651-247-1993 I have something to add to your history.
