As I starting working at a locally owned rock radio station back in 1991 this was the entire staff:
6AM to 10AM Morning Show (3)
10AM to 2PM Middays (1)
2PM to 6PM Afternoons (1)
6PM to 10PM Evenings (1)
10PM to 2AM Night Shift (1)
2AM to 6AM Overnights (1)
Program Director
Music Director
Promotions Director
Engineer
Producer / Imaging
Traffic / Commercial
Office Manager
General Manager
Sales Manager
Sales Staff (8)
Secretary
Part Time Air Staff (5)
Interns (3-5)
This about right because I remember having a staff of over 30. The station was #1 and profitable. You would not find this many workers in a cluster of six right now. Last few stations I visited it was a fucking ghost town. Shame.
Acceptable registrations in the queue through September 22 at 3:30p ET have now been activated. Enjoy! -M.W.

Re: 1991 Staffing
to me, it's a blinding emergency when a pretzel stand in the mall has more employees in it than a federally licensed entity that is there to "serve" a community. but what do i know?

Local O/O's operate with about 18 staff these days. Automation has made things more efficient. When in a cluster, it's very efficient. DJ's can cut an entire shift in under an hour, no more babysitting.andymuskegon wrote: ↑Thu May 23, 2024 9:57 amto me, it's a blinding emergency when a pretzel stand in the mall has more employees in it than a federally licensed entity that is there to "serve" a community. but what do i know?
Those revenue dollars are gone forever and no one works in commercial radio for free.
For Kristian Trumpers are not serving our Lord Christ, but their own appetites. By smooth talk and flattery they deceive the minds of naive people.

Very soon, that sentence will be a little shorter:
