Carl P. Mayfield Joins Sirius' Line Up

[Rich]

Carl P. Mayfield, who left Nashville's radio waves in 2003 after 30
years as a staple on rock and country stations, is returning via
satellite.

That's good news to countless Middle Tennesseans - ask anyone under
the age of 50 who grew up here, and they'll know Carl P. He was sort of
a Midstate version of Howard Stern, only cleaner.

Now, Mayfield joins Stern and other big names in the growing world of
satellite radio. His new boss, Sirius, is available to subscribers
only, at a cost of $12.95 per month and with receivers costing $50 and
up.
