Jeff Palmer has the news, he would go on to sister station 1130 CKWX Vancouver eventually joining the West Vancouver police department as a constable. Jay Donald reports on the sports, before his time at 770 CHQR Calgary.
Robin joined CFAC in the early '70s from sister station 1220 CJOC Lethbridge.

As an added bonus we have a few examples of a series of on air salutes to communities around the listening area in "CFAC Country" voiced by Lorne Ball.

Lorne spent many years at CFAC Radio and Television before joining Golden West's 1280 CHRB High River as its founding program director and morning show host for the station's launch in 1977.
We are pleased to share a few of these salutes including Beiseker, Didsbury, Gem, Hanna, Nanton and Three Hills, Alberta.
