The team is partnering with ESPN Radio 97.7/100.1, owned by Galaxy Communications. The deal ends a three-year run with Cumulus Media-owned The Score 1260 (WSKO).
SYRACUSE -- The search for a new brand manager at TK99/TK105 (WTKW/WTKV) is over. Harvey Kojan -- whose career includes on-air and programming experience across upstate New York, and in major markets like Houston and Baltimore -- will join the classic rock stations early next month.

Both sides have spoken favorably about each other, and it appears an official deal could be announced sometime this week.
SYRACUSE -- High praise from one of the region's most prominent charitable organizations for Galaxy Communications President/CEO Ed Levine and his wife, Pam, GM of the company's Events division. The couple will be honored as "MVPs" this year at The Jim and Juli Boeheim Foundation's 14th annual Basket Ball Gala.
SYRACUSE -- Yesterday, we reported that the Syracuse Chiefs have a new radio partner: the Internet.
