Dave Bethune aka Super Dave Logan Passes     2-2-21
Back in 2014 former WDAT-AM 1380 personality, Super Dave Logan, checked in and let us know where he was now. "...After working in the Daytona Beach area for almost 10 years, most of it with WDAT/WELE 1380AM… I moved to Ft. Myers and worked for 20 years as Super Dave Logan for Cat Country 107.1, now owned by Clear Channel. During my time there I was the Promotions Manager, Assistant Program Director and did several air shifts including middays and afternoons. I was laid off in 2011, rehired by Clear Channel in Panama City, but left there because I missed my Southwest Florida home. Dave passed away yesterday at the age of 62.
