JACK PARNEL [ex PD\/DJ WHBQ-] (Memphis, TN)<\/strong> Subject: America\u2019s first stereo FM. `Jim: Your article about the first FM station to go stereo reminded me of a Joni James 45 record of \u201cYou Are My Love\u201d\u2026one of her great hits from in 1958 or 1959; it was on MGM, and was stereo AND mono\u2026one side was stereo and the other mono. I was in my infancy (19 years old!) at WHBQ here in Memphis at the time, and we had gotten FCC licensing to play stereo, using WHBQ Radio as the right channel and our sister TV station audio as the left channel, but we could only use that after WHBQ-TV signed off, about midnight. Listeners were directed to put their radio on the right of their TV. It worked well, but of course was very limited time-wise. That was concocted by our manager, Bill Grumbles, a genius broadcaster who was ahead of his time. Jack Parnell-former WHBQ jock-Memphis, TN<\/em>.<\/p>\n
