In the 1960s (Wayne Dowdy must have been 17 years old!) he was a DJ at WRBC in Jackson and had this awful musical introduction, going, "Wayne Dowdy is on the air ... Wayne Dowdy is on the air ..."

Doesn't he have a part in three 100KW's in the Tupelo metro, Miss 98, Mix 99 (I've been gone 2 yrs, name may have changed), and Sunny 93?

Wayne Dowdy is Morgan Dowdy's brother. Morgan runs most of the stations. Wayne is lawyer. Their father, the late Charles Dowdy started with WROA in Gulfport. They own more than just the Ms. & La. stations mentioned. They own several in Ga. and Tx. also.

Charles' brother, John "Toby" Dowdy, owned WMGR and WJAD in Bainbridge, Ga.  Toby started as a singer in Jacksonville, FL with his own radio  and TV shows.   After Toby died in 1985 his son sold the stations.
