Howie came to the Big 15 from Radio Caroline off the coast of the UK. http://www.offshoreradio.co.uk/djsb.htm  This link has a very nice story of Howie (who used Bud Ballou on Caroline) as well as an aircheck from 1967. What the story dosen't mention is Howie was program director of the very successful 94 Rock (WSYR-FM) until he left Syracuse in 1981. He is currently the weekend news anchor on KOGO San Diego, California.
