Why 560.com?
I was trying to think of a name for a website that would allow me to do anything I wanted without being restrictive. I decided to use 560.com. It was the dial position of my favorite radio station, WQAM, and would not limit the various things I intended to do. One, was a tribute site for WQAM, my favorite radio station when I was a teenager. Another was radio ID jingle collecting (a by-product of listening to WQAM’s jingles) and the other was my interest in Railroads and photographing them. 560.com was the perfect name.WQAM Tribute and Jingle Collecting
I loved WQAM. We moved to Florida when I was in my early teens and was just getting interested in listening to radio and rock and roll music. I discovered WQAM and wouldn’t listen to any other station. They played the best music, had the best DJs, contests and one more thing, jingles. I loved WQAM’s jingles as much as the music and even called and requested jingles! Later, jingle collecting would become a big hobby of mine. My assistants I’ve had three very helpful assistants. They’re always laying in my lap, on my arms, the keyboard, on things I’m trying to read, standing in front of the monitor and wanting to play. But I couldn’t do this without them. They are my cats, Scotty, Trigger and Ralph. Rest In Peace Scotty Feb. 1991 - May 16, 2011 Tigger ~1998 - March 1, 2017 I lost Scotty to old age after 20 years and Tigger, also to old age, after 18 years. They were my faithful companions and always at my side day and night. Tigger and Scotty together again.
