Mike,
I didn't use Wikipedia in my last post, I scrolled up through the thread and
used the number You thought WHAS had been using long ago.

Back in 2017 I saved a Wikipedia page - WHAS (AM) on my desktop pc.
350 kHz is the frequency originally assigned
is what the pdf I saved says 

I looked at that page today but was looking for Barney Arnold to see if his
name was added to the "Notable former on-air personalties" section of that Wiki
page but his name wasn't in there.

Years ago my clockradio was tuned to WHAS and we listened to Barney in the
morning.
That was in the late 1960's - early 1970's (I think his Farm program was on as
late as that) I will have to look at the WHAS Radio webpage to see when his
show ended being broadcasted.

One thing he said that I still remember him saying was:

After shoveling snow off of your walkways don't put Salt on the path, salt will
kill the grass.
He suggested spreading fertilizer instead of salt.

I tried doing that but didn't like walking on the sidewalk and getting
fertilizer on my shoes so I went back using salt in the Wintertime.
