Tropical Aire
Fridays 6:30pm-9pm.
Tone Lope

Originally from Chicago’s south side, I landed in Colorado’s North Fork Valley, near Paonia, in 1973. I was very involved with Campbell Stanton with the birth of KVNF there, and hosted a weekly show there for four plus years. After moving to Grand Junction in 1983, to re-educate and attend nursing school at the then Mesa College, I worked as an RN for the next 28 years. I joined KAFM in 2003, and have hosted the Jazzway Boulevard Show since that time. I also helped the birth of the Tropical Aire Show, and have helped program it, since about
2005 or 2006.
I’ve since retired from nursing, and remain an avid programmer and supporter of KAFM, which include performing with the Radio Room Players, and many other volunteer projects over the years. I am grateful for a good Life, overall.
My radio handle is Tony Lope.
Thanks for it all.
