Former CHAM/CISS DJ Cliff Dumas Now Running 23 U.S. Radio Stations

He spent almost a decade doing mornings at CHAM in Hamilton and worked in Toronto at the old CISS-FM. Now veteran DJ Cliff Dumas has resurfaced in a new role - one of three people who operate 23 radio stations in five U.S. states. 

In this interview with industry vet Dave Charles in FYIMusicNews.com he talks about working here and what he learned, how it formed his current philosophy in running radio stations and why an old hockey injury led to his life in the industry.

Yes it sure sounds like Cliff.  CHCH uses him for their station promos as well.

Cliff Dumas pens a classy farewell on Facebook to his listeners and co-workers, as he leaves his on-air career behind. 

"To listeners in Hamilton, Toronto, Calgary, San Diego and Bakersfield, you have been so gracious to invite me into your homes, cars, and lives every morning, it’s been an honor to be a small part of your daily ritual."
