SAN ANTONIO — A legendary voice in San Antonio's radio history has died.
Lee Woods was a longtime voice on KONO radio and other stations over his decades-long career.
Woods served in the U.S. Air Force from 1968 to 1973 before graduating from the Elkins Institute of Broadcasting in San Antonio in 1974.
His first radio station was KBER, where he did a noon to 6 p.m. shift, six days a week, according to the Texas Radio Hall of Fame. He next moved on to KITY Radio, where he stayed for two years.
1978 was the year Woods made his switch to KONO, where he would spend many years working, first as a disc jockey doing morning drive before becoming program director and later operations manager.
In 1991 he left KONO, but remained in radio for eight more years until his retirement.
Woods' biography says he officially retired from radio broadcasting in 1998, but he still could be heard online doing talk radio at the time he was honored by the Texas Radio Hall of Fame in 2016.
