After 44 years on the Calgary airwaves, Dr. Dan Gavin is about to hang up his headphones.
Doc made his way to Calgary via CKOM in his hometown of Saskatoon, SK. On February 15, 1970 Doc started at CKXL
where he stayed doing All Nights until December 31,1985.
The Doc arrived at CHQR (still at 810 until it's move to 770 in late June 1986) on February 1, 1986 when he took over
the All Night show. When QR moved to it's current News/Talk format in 1992, Doc started working daylight hours,
doing some production work, preparing and hosting the nightly "Those Old Radio shows" feature and board opping talk shows.
This Friday, Doctor Dan Gavin is retiring, a couple of weeks shy of his 67th birthday!
Enjoy your retirement Doc. You'll now have time to catch up on watching old episodes of Lassie, Dragnet and My Mother The Car!
