OWNER-OPERATOR-LICENSEE

In 1987, Clark Smidt began work on radio ownership assisted by Erwin Krasnow, Esq. and Bill Kennard, Esq. with a Docket 80-90 application for Super Class A start-up WNNH 99.1 FM, Concord, "New Hampshire's OLDIES 99."

Managing WNNH as licensee Clark Broadcasting of New Hampshire, Inc., Clark motivated a talented, hand-picked staff to carve out a significant advertiser and audience base during the extremely tough economic times of the early '90s. A major market sound and outstanding client service made WNNH an immediate winner.

Having been in the business during five decades has given Clark a tremendous perspective along with the advantage of understanding all cost-efficient opportunities.

Clark was Broadcast Advisor to WMUR-TV/9, (ABC) Manchester, N.H. (1990-2000) and simulcast the Channel 9 Television News on WNNH Oldies 99 Radio, and was also elected Chairman of The New Hampshire Association of Broadcasters two terms and served on the Board of Directors from 1992-2002.

After selling WNNH, Clark became Tele-Media's Regional Market General Manager running WNNH, WLKZ-FM, Laconia (Oldies) and WHOB-FM, Nashua (Hot A/C), all within the Boston ADI.
