Friday, October 12,
2021:
There was snow overnight, but it melted on the driveway. |
Mark was heading east, when he came across the Deerwood,
Minnesota, Deer wearing hunter's orange. |
He wound up at KKIN Radio that morning. (l-r) KKIN Radio
announcer Paul Vold, Tom, Roger, Mark Persons, Lon schmidt and Carroll Janzen. They were heard on the radio 8:15 am to 9 am talking about veteran issues. |
Mark was on the air in Brainerd a few days earlier recording
remarks for Veterans Day. Mark is heard on the air probably 25 times a year talking about veteran related activities. |
Mark and Paula recently fully restored a 1951 vintage Zenith
Trans-Oceanic radio and donated it to the Crow Wing County Historical Society. It is a portable AM and shortwave receiver. Shown here in the Society's new library, it is next to a book written by Mark's father Charles B. Persons. |
Quote of the day: Fun to be on the air. Mark | < Back to previous story | Ahead to next story > |
