CFLRadio Turns 2    8-7-05
This month marks our second year on the Internet. It all began as a simple tribute page to a couple of local stations. Well as you can see the work has become much more. We've had so much help from so many people and you will find them all, among these pages. This site would not have been achievable without the help of  my wife without whose support this would not be possible. And of course a very special thank you to all the folks who appear on these pages who have supplied stories and photos and other information. It's with help from folks like yourself that this site can truly become a History of Central Florida Radio. Thanks for a wonderful two years and looking forward to many more.
