- Radio station WINC started operations in 1941, and since then has presented many fine radio programs of both network and local origin. The station, located on the West Virginia - Virginia border in the county of Frederick, is under the management of Richard Field Lewis, Jr., and serves an area of nearly 5,000 radio homes. (en)
- The broadcast came as a surprise because only the night before did the Federal Communications Commission given WAGE permission to broadcast. (en)
- Gill, who had to bring his own records to play, was no stranger to radio. He had worked for WPPA in Pottsville, Pa., and WFMD in Frederick, Md., and ran a radio and electrical repair shop on King Street in Leesburg. Assisted by Phil Whitney, engineer and announcer at WAGE's parent station, WINC in Winchester, Gill had spent weeks setting up and testing the equipment at WAGE. (en)

- Richard Field Lewis Jr., WINC's president and owner of seven radio stations in Virginia, West Virginia and Pennsylvania, had known Gill as a fellow ham radio operator. One day, Lewis stopped by the shop and told Gill that he wanted to start a station in Brunswick or Leesburg. Gill recalls replying: "Brunswick is going down, down, down. Leesburg is only going up."
