Chicago Radio: WJMK Adds Jeffrey T. Mason To Line-Up

Jeffrey T. Mason
Jeffrey T. Mason is back on the Chicago airwaves after over ten years away. Mason has been hired by WJMK-FM/104.3 K-Hits for weeknights 7p to midnight, according to Chicago Radio & Media.

Mason now fills a vacancy that the station has had for six months, since George McFly exited K-Hits' nights in early October 2012.

For ten years, Mason was heard on Chicago radio. He began with Big City Radio's suburban WKIE-FM when it was 92.7 Kiss FM in December 1998, being the first live DJ on the air there. In August 1999, he moved over to sister-station WXXY-FM to be the evening DJ and music director for that short-lived all-80s station. For the first half of 2001, Mason worked nights for Chicago's ABC Radio-owned WZZN-FM, playing 80s and 90s music on "The Zone." By the second half of 2001, he was back with suburban Big City Radio, working as a morning, then evening DJ on WKIE-FM/WKIF-FM/WDEK-FM, known as the dance station Energy 95.7. By the start of January, 2003, that station was no more and Jeffro moved on.

He most recently had been working at Phoenix, AZ's KOOL-FM as a midday DJ & Assistant Program Director, as well as a DJ on sister-station KMLE-FM. He exited KMLE-FM in August 2010 and exited KOOL-FM this past November. Like Chicago's WJMK-FM, Phoenix's KOOL-FM is CBS Radio-owned station with a Classic Hits format. Mason has worked at approximately 30 radio stations nationwide.
