Engineers Bob Fetterman and Archie Sichel were two of the WIBBAGE engineers who remained after the station gave control of the audio console to the air talent. Both Bob and Archie worked at WIBG during its glory period and ran board for such greats as Broadcast Pioneers member Joe Niagara and Hy Lit.
