“96Krock has always been the home for classic rock and entertaining talk in Southwest Florida” says VP Market Manager, Brad Beasley. “In the early 90’s when Joe, Stan and Mark Haney did mornings, we saw that listener’s responded positively. In the late 90’s – 2004 Howard Stern did mornings, creating a huge following. Over time we have found Southwest Florida listeners really enjoy entertaining talk, so beginning Monday that’s what 96Krock will provide, and just up the dial, the exclusive home for all rock in Southwest Florida, 99X.”
