Rock’n Ronnie

Post by Deleted User 14803 » Tue Dec 18, 2018 7:33 pm

I remember Rock’n Ronnie who used to DJ at the Gibraltar Trade Center In Mt.Clemens when they had Car Shows, and he had a Micro Radio station that broadcast on FM on the low end of the dial, Does he still do this or is he out of the business.

I remember Rockin' Robbie from WDRQ 1030 Sterling Heights in 1988. Does that count? His father had such a station on AM around Flint in the mid 1960s, called WDAW 1200, when he was young.

Is THAT where they got the idea for the 486-SX?

Don’t really know it’s possible, this guy also did other classic car shows as well, and he would if I remember correctly broadcast on 89.5 and his micro-station would travel about a mile.

Same MO. Bob, Sr. went around to different businesses and did his "remotes". The station got out a few hundred feet.

He still does classic car shows, I know he was ill for awhile but looks good now. I saw him doing the big car show up in Frankenmuth this past Sept.

Rockin' Robbie and Rockin' Ronnie are two different people.

Funny though how people get their stage names, even if they are their real names. I ran into a DJ that used to be at 50000 watt WGTO 640 (now WFLF) Pine Hills, FL. The station he was at later, was a 1000 watt station on 1280, WIPC Lake Wales, FL. He did an Oldies Show. His name is Mark Rolen. I asked what name he used on the air. He said it was Mark Rolen, because the show was called "Rolen With The Oldies".
