Bob Knox
WIBG Radio
circa 1945

"The Grey Ghost," Box Knox was a mainstay at WIBG for decades. He did many things at the station, disc jockey work and news among other things.

For awhile, Bob was the morning newsman working with Bill Wright, Sr., "The Rebel." We have a complete Bob Knox newscast from Tuesday, September 6, 1960. It's 8:55 am. The news open, by the way, was done by Johnny Grubbs who later went into management with Storer Broadcasting, which owned WIBG at the time.
