Today's poll states "Republican Vice Presidential Candidate Sarah Palin was interview twice, last Thursday and Friday, by ABC News Anchor Charles Gibson. Their question and answer session covered her personal qualification to be VP, and subsequent issues dealing with foreign and domestic affairs." But the question should have been "From what you may have heard, seen or read about these interview broadcasts, do you think ABC News Anchor Charles Gibson displayed a condescending and disrespectful attitude throughout the interview?"-R.
Like the old-time radio shows a lot. Not happy with the football pre-empt on Friday evenings. Perhaps at least one hour of old shows could be played from the 12 - 1 AM hour.-Gary, Pgh, 15237
Keep those Old Time Radio shows coming! We love them! Late night talk radio in Pittsburg is officially "dead". I just love those old radio shows and listen to them all the time now. Thanks so much!-Bill
All of our family and friends have enjoyed the Jim French Imagination theatre since it began. The quality of the talent and cleaver,entertaining story plots are absolutely wonderful. We enjoy all of KQV's concise reporting and professional personalities. Your station is a refreshing oasis in journalism, information and entertainment. Please keep up the great work and don't change a thing. Thank You-Ron , mt washington
Please stop the "Friday High School Football Rap-Up Garbage Talk"! I enjoy "When Radio Was" each evening and, yes, throughout the night on Saturdays and Sundays-Lou , 15201
I Cant get enough of "when radio was" Please include more of it in your programing. It is unique and special. There is to much political talk radio out there. Radio dramas are a breath of fresh air. More please!-josiah, polish hill
I really ENJOYED the interview with Councilman Peduto about the film being made about the Allegheny Observatory. I learned all kinds of things I didn't know. Please do MORE in-depth interviews. They add much interest to an otherwise boring over and over news cycle.-Pat , Rosslyn Farms
A search option would make your nicely updated web site even better...-Jim Tracey, Pittsburgh, PA
Regarding today's poll asking whether KBR should held responsible for the electrocution of soldiers in Iraq, I was surprised you did not mention that KBR was until only recently, a subsidiary of Haliburton - and of course, Dick Cheney is former CEO. If you would have mentioned that, I am sure it would have affected the voting and had many of your right-wing audience to switch their votes since for them, as they have shown in so many previous polls, ideology trumps fairness.-Mike
Is there any charge to listen to KQV on the internet? I saw the toolbar but hesitate to download if there are any charges. thank you Answer: No you can listen all you want it's free.-John
With regard to the Don Barden casino financing fiasco, I am intrigued by the fact that there was no mention of a surety bond, that would have guaranteed funds for finishing the project if Barden fizzled. Why wasn't this ever mentioned? Surely he would have had to have one, when bidding on a government project. Or is this a requirement only for the contractors doing the work, and not for the promoter?-Jack
I just want to tell you how much I enjoy "When Radio Was" each evening and, yes, throughout the night on Saturdays and Sundays. I'm old enough to remember hearing some of these shows when they were first broadcast and it's wonderful to hear them again. Keep them coming!-Patricia
I love "When Radio Was"!! I've been listening to it when it was just an hour long and now I love the fact that is on much longer. I am 40 years old and live in the city. I listen to every single night when I go to bed. Best Regards-John
Mr. Dickey, The Pittsburgh Casino. Legitimate bidders on the casino project are being scammed. The Chicago billionair who is getting the gaming license donated $200,000 to Rendell's campaign and another $100,000 to the PA democratic party. Now by default, he gets the license. Where is the outrage? I didn't know these licenses were for sale and now I wonder what else is for sale by the State. Are pockets being lined? If not it certainly appears to be inappropriate.-Dr. A.
A couple of things I wanted to pass along to you. One is that I have KQV set as my homepage and every once in a while, I think that I'd like to change it to one of the local or national newspapers, try them out, always come back to yours. Another is that I listen to you quite frequently during the day to catch up on current news and I love your "When Radio Was" programs you air, I listen as much as I can when I'm awake when it's on. Lastly, I needed a new screen door and window replaced, didn't know who to call. I heard Metropolitan Windows doing their 1/2 hour program one evening, liked the way they talked etc., called them and bought from them, their salesman was very good and not pushy and I was very impressed with their installers. Same thing when I needed to have my electronic air cleaner replaced. ( I haven't been happy with the Htg./A/C people I've been using, I heard Restano's program one evening, called them and had them put in a new air cleaner. I was also very hap! py with their salesman and installer. I just thought I'd pass that along to you, you guys do a good job all the way around. Keep up the good work!-Mike
I just love your "When radio was" radio movies. I have stopped listening to KDKA since they have gone "wierd" and found you while turning the dial one evening. Keep up the good work, and the broadcasts. I love the old time radio shows!!!-Bill
Pittsburgh Global Press Conference World Affairs Council - 4:30-5:00 today, July 19 (Saturday). It was mentioned that the "expert" discussing energy recently addressed our School Teachers. God help us! This guy never mentioned that for the last 35 years we have restricted drilling for Oil. In 1973, a year the "expert" used as a reference point, our domestic production was about nine million barrels a day and our consumption was about 12 million barrels a day. Since '73 we've seen nothing but restrictions on drilling. As a result, latest stats (2005) show that domestic production has fallen to about seven million barrels of Oil a day while domestic consumption has grown to 21 million barrels a day. HEADLINE for the "expert:" rising consumption and falling production equals a BIG problem. DOMESTIC REMEDY - DRILL NOW AND START TO CATCH SUPPLY UP WITH OUR GROWING DEMAND.-Dan , Pittsburgh, PA (Churchill)
Please carry all three hours of the Bruce Williams show all week long. I listen on the internet directly from his radio feed, but will happily switch over to KQV when you carry the show in its entirety. His new format is exceptional and the show is unlike any others I have found.-Steve, Gibsonia
I'm a faithful listener. I really enjoy the "Old Time Radio" and Sunday night theater productions. Keep it up.-Janelle
Thanks so much for Radio That Was....It's a wonderful oasis in AM radio.....also appreciate Bruce Williams.-Betty, Penn Hills
I've been enjoying your reports here in San Francisco. As a former Pittsburgher, it is nice to stay in touch with the old home town by listening to your station. Thanks.-Joe
Thanks for keeping Bruce Williams on your station.-Paul
Thank you for keeping Bruce Williams! Great program.-Richard, Bethel Park
A sincere thank you for the "When Radio Was" programming. Fibber Magee, Inner Sanctum, The Shadow ALL of them deserve and demonstrate what it takes to be labeled "classic". - Honestly, how many current TV shows will be remembered in a year or 2? These classic radio shows have and will continue to endure. Keep them on air!-Tony G., Brookline
I absolutely love the old time radio shows each evening! Looking forward to the new Twilight Zone Radio shows. Its getting hard to get a clear signal though. Happens every summer. Bummer. Thanks, Deb-Deb Whitewood, Bridgeville, PA
Corporate Banners question: I am not a city resident, however with numerous out of town individuals coming to our town as a result of the SC finals, would it not be nice to project the city as an enthusiastic, vibrant city supporting its sports teams. Instead we must act like we still live in the 1960's. And we wonder why our young people are moving away. Please bring the signs to the airport cooridor.-Jerry
I truly enjoy listening to the "When Radio Was" programs and "The Twilight Zone" series on KQV. My hobby is restoring big old Zenith and Philco console radios from the 30's and 40's that I find at yard sales and flea markets. Turn the lights off and and fire up one of these old superhetrodyne radios, with their big lighted dials, and it's like going back in time. Close your eyes and use your imagination to picture the scene. It's fantastic! Even my teenage kids and wife enjoy sharing the experience. Now that really is something! Thank you and keep up the good work, Gary Giel-Gary , Glenshaw
I want to commend Robert W Dickey for his fine editorial on Memorial Day. Thank You for your kind words on all Veterans. I am a Viet Nam Veteran and you did a fine job on expressing your views on all Veterans. You know Mr. Dickey every day we hear and read so much on politics and world situations including crime and current events but we often forget how lucky we are to be living in the Land of the Free. If it were not for our veterans all the great happenings in life would not be there. Once again Mr. Dickey I salute you for your Great Radio Editorial Saluting all Veterans. Once Again I Salute You. Thank You Sir.-KQV Listener, White Oak Pennsylvania
How many people, especially those in the East End of the city, are happy to hear that the Marathon is coming back? I live on the border of Bloomfield and Shadyside. We are held "captive" in our homes for 6- 8 hours on Marathon Sunday. Getting to church is an experience. Why not take the runners out to North or South Park and let them run around a course out there.-Lordeen
I just want to tell you how much I enjoy the Old Time Radio Shows. I just discovered them recently when KDKA changed their talk shows at night. My dial is now set to KQV. I don't sleep very well at night so am really enjoying the programs. Thank you for giving the listeners something that is enjoyable.-Doris , Baldwin
Your editorial on Mary Conturo is unfair. She is a bureaucrat - always been a bureaucrat and always answers to a higher authority. You say she never informed her board - have you ever met those board members? Do you believe them? I'd look higher than the board - how about the Chief Executive's Office in the County Office Building. Nothing gets by without his signature. She's just a figure-head. Calling for her to stepdown is not the right call - point it where it should be pointed. Nothing in Allegheny County gets by without the Chief Execs approval. Dick-Dick , Pittsburgh, PA
I don't hear much coverage about this issue. http://www.thecuttingedgenews.com/index.php?article=473-Jim , Pittsburgh
I listen to KQV every night for the old-time radio shows. I am a child of the TV generation (born in 1980) and never knew how entertaining and imaginative radio shows were. Please don't ever drop that program!-Justin , Springdale, PA
NICE JOB OF TRAFFIC REPORTING,!!! NOT . U TALK ABOUT ALL BUT THE RT88 CLOSURE AND HOW ABOUT VANIDEM RD AT AND THE MESS ON RT 50 IN BRIDGEVILLE AND HEIDLEBURG,??? THIS RT50 MESS ADDED 20/30 MIN TO TRAVEL TIME. THANKS FOR THE WARNING..-Bill , Castle Shannon,Pa
Enough with the North Shore project already! As can be seen, even the tree roots are giving the message to stop! What is the price of that particular problem? This whole project was ill-conceived from the beginning. Who IS reaping the financial rewards on this? Perhaps that is where the money should come from!-Judy
I agree completely with Bob Dickey's editorial! He his so right!!-Marilyn
I like very much your old time "When Radio Was" shows. I listen to the radio as I fall asleep at night and it's still tuned to your station for the morning news broadcasts when I wake up. Thanks, Gary-Gary
I just love the old time radio programs. I don't sleep most of the night and these programs are wonderful. Keep them coming!!!!-Katherine , Forest Hills, PA
The Title all news/all the time is misleading, because fans don't know that 1410 also has radio shows from the past. We lucked on to this when my mother was stuck in bed with the flu and she started to listen to the radio and came across the old shows. You would think she won the lotto as she was so happy to once again hear shows from her childhood. Thanks for having your station air the radio shows, and I think you would get more listeners if you let people know they are on.-Nicholas
I really like "When Radio Was" and I like hearing Mike Pintek on along with P.J. Maloney. P.J. Maloney makes the station cause he is really a good radio speaker! I am a former KDKA listener but since they let Gary Dickson go, I am turned off on KDKA and I listen to KQV all day and off and on in the evening. I especially like, in the morning, when the time is given and the date! THANKS, Marilyn-Marilyn, Mt. Washington
Last Sunday March 16th, the OPINION POLL question was something about Easter meaning more to a person today or less important. Can you please tell me the correct question and what the results were? Thank you for providing the Mormon Choir. I enjoy it on my way to church. What a way to get prepared for the worship service! Reply: Look in the Opinion Poll Archives on the website. You will find all the results of past Opinion Polls .-Helen
I enjoy When Radio Was and Imagination Theater. I wish you had more episodes. Also, you used to start these kinds of shows earlier in the evening, but then you moved them to 9:00 and 10:00 pm starting times. I wish you could start them earlier.-Judy
so dan rooney thinks its okay for harrison to slap his girl friend around because in his own words james harrison was doing good he was trying to take his kid to get baptise give me a break he does not want to say anything because harrison is a better player-sam
Love your old time radio.-William
Nice site!-Nikolet
I LOOK FOREWARD TO WHEN RADIO WAS PROGRAM.I HAVE TOLD MY BROTHER WHO LIVES IN CHICAGO ABOUT THE AVAILABILITY OF YOUR PROGRAMS ON THE INTERNET PLEASE CONTINUE-HSACKS
I love your old time radio shows and listen online whenever I can. KQV's old time radio shows are a refreshing break from what's being broadcast on all the other radio stations. I commend you for presenting such fine entertainment.-Norm, Dickenson County, VA
Time Announcements on the First Day of Daylight Savings Time - Your morning news man announces: The time is "27 MINUTES AFTER THE HOUR". Dah-- After the hour of WHAT. That's like saying the current football score is 16 to 24. The more appropriate time announcement is, for example, "27 minutes after 9" or simply 9 27, both of which are shorter than "27 minutes after the hour". ..after the hour (of blank) should always be avoided, especially on the day when EST changes to DST. Thanks, Gabe-Gabe , 15210
Just wanted to let you know how much I enjoy "When Radio Was" and the other old time radio programs. I listened to the CBS Radio Mystery Theater as a child in the 70's and loved it. Glad to hear these programs again. I have told my mom and some friends - particularly those with senior citizen parents - about the old radio shows. They enjoy listening and the shows back good memories for them. As for me, I am ready to go out and buy a new Nash 600!-Janine W, Dormont
It's great to see your photos in the Station Info section. It's great to put a face with the names. I have been listening to KQV for over a year now (morning news especially). I got hooked on my long commutes into the city when I lived in the South Hills. Knowing that the traffic was on the 8's was priceless. You all do a wonderful job and I really enjoy KQV and will listen for many years to come! I especially like the little additions to the broadcast, like the history minute, etc. I not only feel like I am getting the news, but a little education about Pittsburgh too! Keep up the great work!!!-Michelle, Shaler
I want to thank KQV for When radio was, what a fantastic series. I am 43 yrs old and listining to the old shows from the 30 - 50s is like goin back in time. No vaulgar language or what I call "stupid talk". My sister died a few years back of cancer. She would listen to the "When radio as " at night because she couldn't sleep. She just wished it was on all night like it is on sundays. Thanx again for great programing in general.-Chet
I Really love the "When Radio Was" on the weekends and I also enjoy Bruce Williams' show.-Marilyn
Thank your sports anchor, today he gave the NASCAR results.-ed, kennedy
I love Old Time Radio at night!!!!! I tell all my friends and on Fridays a few of us hang out and listen to it together. My demographic is single white male, 44 yo, $85K year. I also hit kqv sometimes during the day and like it. However the traffic reporting service IS ABYSMAL and has been year in, year out. All in all, KQV is a Pittsburgh institution. News during the day and old time radio at night. Keep it up.-Thom
Enjoy the When Radio Was show! Thanks-Anthony
In the McMurray/Peter's Twp. area where I live, people are displaying their Terrible Towels in tribute to Myron Cope, ........ in windows, on front doors, gate posts, mailboxes, etc. On my way to work this morning, I also saw a Terrible Towel spread out in a car's back window. Aren't those nice ways to honor "our" Myron?-Vivian
Tell your sports man that western Pa has one of the largest core of NASCAR fans in the US. Please give us the results of the sunday races.-ed, kennedy
I called the station today (2/21) with a question on programming. Initially, I was looking for your schedule online but when I couldn't find it, I called. The woman who answered had no idea what the programs are or had any knowledge of a schedule, and had no interest in finding one. Why is it so difficult to find out when Bruce Williams or radio theater or local advice shows are on? I understand the station is obligated to broadcast certain sports programs and that can supercede local programming. It's absurd that a general schedule is not available - especially to your staff. I hope you can offer better service to your listeners in the future. Carrie-Carrie, Pgh
I love Classic Radio and Imaginiation. It's like having someone tell me a bedtime story. thanks to the sponsors..... Bette-Bette , Noth Side

IM VERY GLAD THAT YOU OFFER WHEN RADIO WAS EVERY EVENING PLEASE CONTINUE ITS THE HIGHLIGHT OF MY EVENING A NUMBER OF MY FRIENDS ARE LISTENING TO KQV ON THEIR COMPUTERS-HSACKS, EVANS CITY PA
i have been a tax payer for about 50 some years and never received a rebate. now retired you want too deny me a rebate,that is terrible. dissafied kqv listner-elmer, shaler
Long time listener, and generally enjoy all of the various programs. Last six months or so, I've noticed many more commercials on at all times - but especially during the morning and evening commute times it seems... I understand your economics, but please don't drown us in so many solicitations!-George, Jefferson Hills
Could your station do an investigation into all the false storied that are reported by Marty Griffin?-Stu, Pittsburgh
I love your old time radio shows but there are far to many repeats!!!!! Please try and do a better job of choosing different shows!-Loni, Pittsburgh
I wanted to let you know how much I enjoy the old time radio shows and the Twilight Zone for the radio shows. I have been listening for years, but only recently got online (new laptop for Christmas). The marathons over the weekends are great, I just slide a speaker under my pillow and I am in heaven. Please keep the stories on. I tell everyone I know about them.-Betsy , pittsburgh northside
What happened to the second part of the January Powder River broadcast?-Bill , Verona
JUST WANT YOU TO KNOW THAT I REALLY ENJOY OLD TIME RADIO ON KQV WISH THERE WAS MORE. I LOVE RADIO AND I LOVE KQV-FRED
I enjoy listening on line! Could you please send me any station publicity items that you have? Thanks:-BRENT

gov. rendell endorses hillary I will try to write this without laughing poor hillary our gov. has done nothing but raise taxes. were is the property rebate hes been promising for the last 5 years.-sam, north hills
I just wanted to let you know that I listen to 'When radio was' almost every night. I think that its one of the few really good things on the radio these days. It would be great if you dedicated more air time to the show. thanks,-Niko
I think you should keep better track of the old time radio shows, sometimes I hear the same shows 2 times in a week!!!!! there are fifty years of radio programs, we don't need to hear repeats!-John, Cincinnati
Could I Please Have a Schedule and a line-up for Imagination Theater. We love KQV. Len-Leonard , Squirrel Hill Pittsburgh Pa 15217
Thanks for going back to the local news at 5:30. You made my day!-elizabeth
If I hear one more tribute to Harris or Bradshaw I am going to scream. Enough is enough. This has been going on for over a month. No more football,please.also how about a little more power. I have trouble hearing your station at seven in the morning at the airport.-ed , kennedy
I would like to receive some information on a dj that you had a long time ago around 1961. His name is Dick Blanchard. Thank you, Donna-Donna, N. Huntingdon, Pa.
I was so very pleased to have your regular programming on this morning at 5:30AM. I wake up and go to bed with KQV every day(enjoy the "Way Radio Was" programs at night). I love waking up with your news and sports each morning and not the Wall St.Journal Report. I was afraid you had changed your format and I was going to have to go to "the other K" for morning news. Thanks for being back where I need you and I hope it stays this way!-Sharon
I was so pleased this am to hear the familiar voices of PJ Maloney and Eric Hagman. Thanks for bringing them back!-marianne, verona
I totally agree with Shaun, Nora and Mariana's comments. I also commute at 5:30am and rely on KQV for news, traffic and weather. Please return to the old format!!-marianne, verona
I always tune to KQV during weekday mornings from 5:15 to 6:15 to obtain local news, weather, traffic, etc. Now you are airing the Bloomberg broadcast and I certainly hope this is not a permanent decision. I think most listeners prefer to hear the latest local news and conditions.-Mary Ellen, Pittsburgh, PA
I am writing to express my disappointment in what appears to be a change in your morning programming. My normal routine has the alarm clock go off at 5:40 a.m., and I immediately turn on KQV radio. In the next 20 minutes I could hear sports (my favorite segment), traffic and weather forecast, and news headlines. I was out of town over the holidays, so I don't know when this happened, but imagine my surprise when I turned on the radio this morning and heard the Bloomberg business reports instead of Eric Hagman talking about sports. What a disappointing way to start the New Year! I did hear the regular broadcast begin a few minutes before 6:00, so I was at least able to hear the traffic and weather reports. Is this a permanent change? If so, I will be looking for a new station to listen to while I get ready for work. Sincerely, Marilyn-Marilyn
Please tell me the extension of the Bloomberg broadcast until 6 AM is not a permanent decision. I rely on KQV for my local news on my morning commute, traffic and weather between 5:30 and 6 AM.-Shaun , Larimer, PA
What's happened to the KQV morning broadcast at 5:30? I was forced to listen to Bloomburg "something" the last few mornings and it was terrible. I am a nurse and when I work the daylight shift, I am looking for headlines, time, weather, traffic. I really hope that you'll consider eliminating that annoying a.m. broadcast and go back to the original 5:30 broadcasting format. Thank you for letting me voice my opinion.-Nora , Pittsburgh, PA
Have you changed your format? It is 5:50AM and I am listening to the Bloomberg report. What happened to local news starting at 5:30AM? I miss the local news, traffic/weather and also sports. I hope this is temporary.-Mariana
Congratulations on the website makeover. It looks great! I've been away for a few weeks, and this was a nice surprise when I checked back.-Sharon
My wife and I listen to KQV almost everytime we're in the car. And that seems to be a regular location for us since retirement. As a Duquesne grad, I greatly appreciate the broadcasts of the Dukes' games all these years. I live and die with Ray Goss. And finally, a special THANK YOU for taking me back to my radio days. I grew up in the late 40's and early 50's (before tv) and spent many enjoyable hours "returning to those thrilling days of yesteryear". KQV...what a great part of Pittsburgh ................-Joseph , Sheriden
Hi, I have severl things in no particular order. First, thank you for improving the usability and accessibility of your web site. It is now very much easier to read for me than it used to be. I am a person who is blind and use a piece of software called a "screen reader." I haven't seen the whole thing yet, but I like what I see. I am looking for a schedule of your shows but have not found it yet. Particularly, I am looking for contact information for the people who have the "Safe Money" show. Would you please put alternate text on the image at the top of the pages of the site that indicate that we should click to linten? "Listen now" would be just fine. It doesn't have to say click to listen because screen reading software always indicates that the user encounters a link. You have a lot more content on the site. That's great. Thanks. Jim-Jim , Pittsburgh
I enjoy the old time radio programs. keep them coming. THANKS-bob, charleroi,pa
I love the old time radio programs. These were created during the golden age of radio, and they are still great today. Keep 'em coming! P.s. Love the Life of Riley shows!!-Bill , Ross
We both enjoy listening to the "When Radio Was" programming, especially on Saturday and Sunday nights when it continues after midnight. We like all of the shows: the newer "Twilight Zone"and "Powder River", and all of the older ones from the 1930's and 1940's. Please continue with this entertaining programming.-G.& M., Shaler Twp.
waterboarding...today it's ok to use on the the "Islamic terrorists", tomorrow may be OK on domestic "terrorists". What about those pesky killers in the headlines like Drew Peterson in Illinois...after all, we all know he killed his wife, but we need him to tell us where he hid the body...so waterboard him...we could all watch on pay for view TV. Congratulations to CNN for showing us how to do it.-Ed
I object to your leading of today's poll by referring to waterboarding as "harsh." Is it worse than taking a person out blindfolded and pretending to execute them? Is it worse than cutting their heads off with a sword while video taping it? If waterboarding can lead to the saving of a single innocent life, or preventing another 9/11 attack, then a little "inconvenience" is worth it.-Mike, Plum, Pa.
Regarding Jack Wagner's proposal, I'm not 100% satisfied with that either. It makes the board appointees the pets of the Governor's office, which is as corrupt as the county. First, cut the number of board members, if 9 people can run the county, surely PAT can get along with fewer. Second, make them electable by the people, that way they will be responsible to the public, not to the political hacks in this state. And, if they show fiscal irresponsibility then the people can have the say on removing them from office. Like the county board, the PAT board should be made up of representatives from all over the county, assuring that people from the east get the same considerations as those from the south.-Mike, Plum, Pa.
Regarding you opinion poll, neither is a satisfactory alternative. Let PAT figure out how to become financially sound without taxing users and non-users alike to support their irreponsible spending.-Tom
Its obvious how kqv feels about coach Paterno. "paterno earns more than 500,000". It should have been Paterno earns LESS than 600.00. the headline of the story gives the impression he is over paid by earning" more than $500,000.-harold , palm harbor fl
As per your editorial,it was the closest voting results in my memory. But as good as the results for Republicans in the Pittsburgh mayor's race it was still 2 to 1 against. So in the future why bother to run any oppsition. In the future the people will continue to be forced vote for the primary indorced democrate, because all of the other likely democrates have dropped out in order to stay in good with the PARTY. Thus, the only one left on the ballot is the on who owes his existance to party hacks with the most influence and money. Wake up you ....s and see what has happened to the city in the last 70 years (no industy to pay your taxes and no high paying jobs to pay your taxes) and in addition the city was # 3 in corperate head quarters in the 1970(s) and now in the lower 20(s) in the country. In the early 1990(s) a 50% millage increase to the Golden(?) Triangle at the height of a building boom. This tax ended nearly all new construction, because as the leases expired the private sector left the city of Pittsburgh and the ones staying are banks, government, and lawyers (the ones who need not to compete with the outside world). SOLUTION: Get rid of prefential hiring due to party, race, family, nonproductive employees, review all on disability (offer a job to their new abilities - if not excepted cut them, procute all word=k related violationsto the max while holding in a bank account 50% of their pay should they win legal action, ... Do something because this imploding city is pulling the surrounding area down and I want my kids to find jobs here that are rewording.-Bruce , Mt. Lebanon
I would like to see pictures of each person that we hear on KQV every day. Even behind the scenes folks would be nice. I need a face with the name!-Lori , Pittsburgh
Just wanted to let you know how much I enjoy "When Radio Was". I try never to miss a program, the very old programs are the best. I've been a KQV radio listener for 15 years, it's where I get my news and weather, but now at night when the signal is weak and full of static, I can hear KQV on the internet loud and clear. Keep up the good work.-T. , Elizabeth Twp.
Just a quick hi and thank you for having your web site on line so I can hear Pittsburgh and SW PA News. I live in Arizona but used to live in Punxsutawney and miss the falling leaves and frost and Pittsburgh a lot too. Thanks for doing an excellent job with the news all the time. Isn't the Internet great?-Bill , Arizona
Your old entertainment schedule was more informative and easy to read. I am a loyal listener to your old time radio programs and it is annoying looking them up on this new format.-Sallie , Springdale
At one time elected officals were called "Public Servants." Today some of these servants give themselves large pay increases, bonuses, top of the line health and retirement benefits, as well as other perks. They even manage to do this without a union or a strike. Instead of serving the public some of these people are like the fox in the hen house. The only way the average person and stop these abuses is by voting. Before you vote on November 6, 2007 ask yourself if that incumbent is a real value.-Louis
Your new website design looks great and loads much faster. Kudos to the architects and management team. -Mark, Crafton-Mark , Crafton
