Where Are They Now?

   
Chuck Morgan in 1975

Chuck Morgan

This Eerie Pa native came to Tampa Bay in 1975 via WIFE in Indianapolis where he was program director for the Bill Hennes programmed Rahall station. He was the PD at Y95 (WLCY-FM) during the summer of 1976, one of the greatest eras of that signal.

Morgan brought with him several key people he worked with in Indy, including Ben Christopher and Bob Tracey who would end up programming WLCY AM.

Morgan was at the helm at the time of the greatest April Fools joke in bay area history. Night time jock Screaming Jay Hawkins (Phil Hawkins –see his bio in these pages), Tedd Webb and Ben Christopher staged a fake stabbing. It sounded so real, all hell broke loose. Hawkins got fired even though Morgan knew and approved the bit.

Chuck went on to program many other stations in his career, coming back to Tampa Bay briefly in the mid 90s to program Mix 96.

He is now a consultant in the radio biz. E-mail: Momenchuck@aol.com
