STATION EDITORIAL

Posted November 5, 2024

This is a station editorial, I’m Randal J. Miller, station president.   As we enter seasons of thanksgiving and giving, I also see the 2024 calendar continuing to run out of dates.  A year is about over and another is about to begin.

This is the time of year I always look back on the year past and the year ahead.   The older I get, the faster it appears time flies.   Or, maybe it’s just that I cram more into the days, weeks, and months, the older I get.

Either way, Father Time is passing whether we want it to or not.   Our 3 girls were just a few years old what seems like a few years ago.  Now they’re 43, 40, and 34.

What started out as no grandkids over 20 years ago, is now 8 grandchildren…I think.

And, as I look at my broadcast career, it doesn’t seem possible that I’m in my 51st year in the business I love—radio—and 42 in ownership.

Cathy and I were blessed 32 years ago when God opened the door for us to move our family to Taylorville.   

And, 17 years ago on October 16th, we were again blessed when God opened the door for us to begin management of our Clinton stations, which we took possession of on January First, 2008.

The 12 counties our combined 8 radio stations serve, have been sooo good to my family and I in our decades in the radio business in Central Illinois.   I can’t begin to thank the hundreds of advertisers and listeners that have enabled me to serve their towns with local information and entertainment.

As we prepare to enter another year, we take time to thank every person listening for being a part of our radio family.  It’s because of YOU that my great staff and I do what we do every day.   As I’ve told them many times over, we’re ALL here to SERVE.

Thanks for relying on us for information and entertainment every day.  We wish you and your family a most blessed holiday season, and may the love Christ shared when he first arrived over 2-thousand years ago, be prevalent in the world in 2025.  I’m Randal J. Miller.
