Joshua Wilkey, President.
Josh is
the owner of Countrywide Broadcasters, Inc., the parent company of WANO.
He purchased the station in late 2005, and resides in Middlesboro,
Kentucky. In addition to Countrywide Broadcasters, Josh is also a very
active Media Broker, and founder and President of WilkeySouth Media
Brokers, LLC. When he isn't working (and even sometimes when he should
be! :) ) you'll find him at the Middlesboro - Bell County Airport, or
somewhere in the skies in his Piper Arrow. He can be reached via email

Brian O'Brien, Station Manager.
Apart from filling the role of
"whiny little girl" around the office, Brian also serves as
General
Manager of WANO, and sister station WFXY. What does that mean? Well,
basically, he's in charge (scary thought!) of all operations at the
stations, including programming, staffing, and engineering, including
-but not limited to-anything happening behind the glass doors. He's the
morning show host at WFXY, and edits and produces all the news content
for both stations. He actually does so many things that making a list of
everything would be nearly impossible. When Brian isn't working,
oh...wait...he's always working...nevermind. He refuses to take a
vacation, and most of the time you can't get him to stop working even if
you threaten to beat him. You can reach him via email by clicking
here.
Or, give him a call at 606-248-1574.
Libby Gates, Business Manager.
Basically,
Libby could be described as the glue which holds the whole place
together. She handles billing and payables, and tries her very best to
keep Josh and Brian straight. She processes all the paperwork from the
sales department, and even takes care of the plants in the lobby. In
addition to everything she does at the radio stations, she's also Josh's
mother, which is no small job! Reach Libby via email by clicking
