Curtis W., 13 WAVZ New Haven | October 3, 1978
Curtis W Hansen didn’t use his last name on 13 Waves or KC101-FM. His name is legendary. Best known for putting WEBE 108 on the air, Curtis is heard here doing the night show following Floyd Wright. It’s very short, just over one minute in length. Aircheck Courtesy of Contributor Bob Gilmore
