Thursday morning, Cox Media Group in Jacksonville launched Hot 106.5 ?Duval's Adult R&B? (WHJX). The station is also bringing on Clarence Natto (pictured) as the new PD. Market Manager Bill Hendrich said, ?This is a great opportunity to serve the Jacksonville community in an area that has been underserved with radio options for a number of years. Our in-depth market research indicates a great need for classic R&B, and we expect this new format to be an unbelievable success with listeners, as well as a unique platform for our valued advertisers.?
Natto joins the station from CMG Atlanta where he was Director of Promotions for KISS 104.1 FM WALR. ?Great talent resides in the stations owned by Cox Media Group and we have been able to tap into that talent bank once again with Clarence,? added Hendrich. ?I had the pleasure of working with Clarence in Orlando when he was at Star 94.5 and have watched him grow his career over the past few years in Atlanta. I really look forward to having Clarence on our team here in Jacksonville.?
