Triangle Broadcasting in Philadelphia was one of the nations largest media conglomerates back in the 50s, 60s and 70s. One of their radio television groups was in Binghamton, New York, where they initiated an experimental program to attract young men interested in broadcasting. They formed Explorer post 12 which was an arn if the Boy Scouts of America but dedicated strictly to those interest in Broadcasting.
A young high school student, Dave Freeman, was one of the first to be attracted to the explorer post. For the next four decades Dave was heard on many of Binghamton's radio and TV stations but is remembered best for is 14 year run as co-host with Jerry James as "The Breakfast Flakes" on WHWK 98.1.
