Ed Nelson, WNAX, 1964.
Ed Nelson had only worked for WNAX in Yankton, SD, for a couple years before he was hosting the morning news-and-music show, The Five State Parade, for 'mid-morning relaxation'. You know that you're listening to a farmer-focused radio station when 9:10am is 'mid-morning'. Anyhow, Nelson stays with WNAX for another twenty years or so, retiring in 1988.
