Thanks for passing this along.
I too was a big fan of his show, and actually won a couple
of records from his contests over the years.
He was not a ham, at least he wasn't when he was doing his
all night show. I heard him say that once when he read a PSA
for a local ham radio license class.
He also had some hart issues at some point.
Jack Fox told me that he had started selling off his record
collection on Ebay because nobody in his family wanted to do
anything with it.

I just heard that former WHAS personality Joe Donovan passed
away on January
19th at the age of 70. Episode 236 of All Things Radio has
quite a bit on
him including a 1977 air check. He was always one of my
favorite radio
people, and his all night rock and roll revival show was by
far the best
oldies show on the air at the time. I don't know if he was
a ham or not.
