Email Me: [email protected]

Hello there, my name is Douglas "The Big Radio Star" James. I started my radio career here at K105 in 1981... but don't let that fool you I'm a young guy. I did, however, leave for a short period of time to be with the Ringling Brothers circus as a clown... but, things just didn't work out. I begged to come back, and I haven't looked back ever since, I love waking up every weekday morning and spending it with Mary Ann.... she brings me coffee and a grand breakfast (if she feels like it) while we give you your continuous country favorites and real country variety. Thanks to me, MaryAnn and I were nominated in 2004 for the CMA small makert personality of the year, without me, we wouldn't have been considered. I grew up in East Palestine, but I was too popular there... so my parents packed up and moved to New Middletown to get away from all the fame their young son brought so I could concentrate on my studies... and I graduated from Springfield Local. In my spare time I enjoy listening to K105, yard sales, trying to work on my many clunker vehicles, and bargain hunting. I also have a beautiful wife, Arlene... who I thank for putting up with me... a daughter and a son. I want to personally thank each and every one of you that tune in every morning and start your day with the us!

I use to do weekends and fill in for the full-timers... but now I have my very own full time position! I did leave for a while to give radio a try in Savannah, Georgia, but I missed Doug so much, I had to leave my dream job in the south to come back up to cold Ohio just to be around him... he just gives off that effect to the ladies. I graduated from Boardman in 198* ... and was voted "Most Likely To Become Famous" ... and did I live up to everyone's vote! I have a son, Adam, who is my pride and joy and 2 mastiff dogs...

Dave Steele - Afternoon drive: 3PM-7PM & Friday Nights Live at the Dusty Armadillo- Fridays 10PM-12AM

I grew up in a very small town outside of Telluride, Colorado called Norwood. So small, that K-12 was in the same building when I was there. So, I grew up in the mountains and had a full beard by the time I was 4. Built a log cabin when I was four and a half, caught fish with may bare hands and made my own clothes so I could live off the land and be a man, you know, build things with dirt and eat raw meat... run around in the dead of winter with nothing on but a loin cloth. I even wrestled a grizzly bear at when I was five years old. For the most part, the first sentence is true, and everything else is about Doug. I have been on the radio in just about all 50 states... I started out my long radio career in Colorado. After I graduated high school it was off to Kansas City for Electrical Engineering at DeVry Institute of Technology. Needless to say, I am not one to sit behind a desk all day and design circuit boards to I landed a job at Q105 in Kansas City. From there, it was off to Manhattan, Kansas, where I started a new radio station B104.7. I love the smell of moving trucks... so I moved to Lincoln, Nebraska; South Bend, Indiana; Baton Rouge, Lousiana; and Morgantown, West Virginia. Now, I am here in K-Country on K105 as Program Director (the boss) and love it! The people in this town are great, despite of what people live here say... it's very nice. I have a great wife and 2 beautiful daugthers... and I am also a firefigther for Poland, Ohio. The best hang out spot in K-Country is the Dusty Armadillo in Rootstown, I am usually there every Friday night for some reason!

The name is Burton Lee, I've been playing continuous country favorites and real country variety even before Justin Kelly was born, wait, even before Doug James became a super radio star. You can tune in and listen to me try to impress you from 7PM-12AM during the week...actually, I've had just about every shift at K105 imaginable. I grew up in Pittsburgh and now reside in Columbiana County. I enjoy just about all kinds of sports, from archery to water polo. I have a lot of awesome skills, other than being on the radio... I enjoy bow hunting, showing off my sweet knumbchuck moves, and lumber jacking in the backwoods of Columbiana County. I am happily married to my wife Patty and have 2 adopted stray cats... in our neighborhood, it's a way of life! . I love radio and thank each and everyone one of you for listening to K105 and making my show #1 for nights in the area! At 9PM I start up the K-Country Nightclub for all of the late night owls who want to jam to the hottest songs in country music. Also, when I am out on the streets of K-Country, don't be shy... I don't bite... come up and tell me who you are and what song I can play for you next time I am on! I hope to hear from you soon ... by phone or email... let me know what I can do for you... cuz I got the skills to make it happen!

Hey, how's it goin'? Thanks for taking the time to check out our sweet myspace page... make sure you check out mine ! I am Justin Kelly... and they also call me K-Man Jr... and contrary to popular belief, I am not K-Man's son! I have been with K105 almost 5 years and have loved every minute of it. I started out as an intern and worked my butt off to get where I'm at today. Now, you can tune in to me on the weekends and during the week when one of the "hard working" full-timers need a break. As well as being on K105, I have lived in East Palestine all my life... I graduated from East Palestine High School in 2004 and went to Youngstown State University for 1 year for Telecommuications.... ya, I am only 20 years old... I'm the baby at K105! I grew up listening country music in the 90's, that's all I listen to, and I love it! For the past 3 years I have went to the CMA Music Festival (Fan Fair) in Nashville, TN... Nashville is my home away from home, being that I have family that lives there as well. In my spare time you can catch me listening to the latest country music, hanging out with friends, feeding my face, and just enjoy the good things in life. Also, when I fill in for K-Man on the streets of K-Country... I hope you stop by and get your fill of Dunkin' Donuts, muffins and bagels for breakfast... and maybe win a prize! I am very thankful for being with one of the best country stations and working with the best staff in the nation!
