Roe Edmons Production Director

Roe was born in Ft. Bragg, lived there for 6 years, then moved to Phoenix Arizona for 3 years and then back to California where he belongs. Little did he know when he was spinning records at lunchtime in High School that this would turn into a career. Roe has worked in radio for 21 years (19 of them at KUKI). It's very interesting to see how much technology has changed in 20 years. When he started, music was played on Reel-to-reel, cassette or carts. Now everything is computerized and digitally enhanced for a clearer sound. Roe says it's fun having a job you look forward going to each and every day, he wouldn't trade it for anything.

Rick Munroe Business Manager

Rick grew up in Rodeo, California, just about two hours from Lakeport. While going to college at Cal State Hayward he spent a lot of time in/on Soda Bay skiing, partying and sinking his boat - he got it back. In 1980 he graduated and started his accounting career at Moore Business Forms. Nine months later, his gestation period, they transferred him to Visalia in the San Joaquin Valley. That started his moving career. Living the single life he had some spare time so he spent it taking pictures and earning an MBA from National University. In 1990 he moved to King City in the Salinas Valley. There he met his wife, Sharon, and daughter, Janet. He was married less than a year when it was time to move again. Uprooted his new family and took them to Ridgecrest in the Owens Valley where he started his 15 year career in the geothermal electrical generation Industry. Working for a growing company gave Rick the opportunity to keep moving. In 1996 he went to the Philippines where he started up a new accounting department on the island of Leyte - where McArthur returned. After a year he moved to Jakarta, Indonesia to keep on doing the same thing for two more years. He was there when the Asian economy fell and the Indonesian government became a true democracy. Claims it was kind of nostalgic. Reminded him of Berkeley in the 70s. It was the students who brought down the presidents. From there he moved to the Imperial Valley where he was still working for the same geothermal power company. In 2004 he left that company and the Imperial Valley for Hidden Valley (see a valley trend here) and work for Calpine. Said it was like coming home, spends holidays with his family again. He came to work for Bicoastal Media in June 2006 - something to do with Calpine filing for bankruptcy. He said it wasn't much of a change from geothermal to radio (steam to hot air) and he doesn't regret doing it.
