Salem News: WBOQ drops Jackie Ankeles

I believe she was one of the original ten. I joined the "BOQ sales staff in 
1989 and she was already on staff . She was a consummate professional and a 
terrific person. After that length of service she deserved better than 
"immediate termination." Such is the way of radio.

By the way. I found this on http://nelson.oldradio.com/

WHDH, Boston, originally had studios on the water in Gloucester. Its calls 
never really stood for We Haul Dead Haddock, but it was often said that they 
did.

Does anyone know if this is accurate?

Thanks,
Ted

 This NY Times article was dated a month after that (this was May of 88, and 
you said you were there in Apr of 88)

Ankeles' article says she started when they were classical (under Tanger 
ownership) 22 years ago so she must have been one of the "10 people" hired, 
acc to the article

Simon sold out in 1988? I thought it was a little later than that. I
last visited him in April of that year and he gave no hint he was
cashing in.
