Mr. Doug Douglass was kind enough to supply information for these
pages. In a copy of pages for Sanford from the 1958 Broadcast
Annual I found a listing for station WIOD in Sanford. I
thought this was a misprint. Bill Reck co-owner of WTRR-AM 1400 in
Sanford verified that there was in fact a second radio station would take to the
air in Sanford in 1956. |
