We’re sad to report that on Oct 30 Larry Turnbull, a man who gave everything he had to our WQNA radio station, and saved it when technical disasters occurred, passed away. When we finally have a terrestrial station again, there’ll be a memorial to Larry above the control board.
Due to circumstances beyond our control, our station is no longer on TuneIn. You can find us at Live365 listen.scbradio.org
