That started Muschette's journey in radio - a journey that proved successful as he stamped his authority on the industry to become a household name islandwide with morning programmes that grew in popularity. “Mr Stewart believed in me that was his first entry into media.” The W never had a meaning but we just wanted it to have a nice ring,” Muschette explained. My friend Joseph and I came up with the idea to name it WSMB 88.3. I did, and we built the first radio station at a hotel in the world, and that radio station became WSMB. Eventually, Sandals Chairman Gordon “Butch” Stewart heard about Muschette's activities and had a word with the young man. That job gave him the opportunity to go into the hotel disco and simulate presenting a radio show. I went to many radio stations, but nobody gave me a chance until I got a job as a playmaker at Sandals Montego Bay,” Muschette said. Many times I just wanted to get to look inside a studio. “When I was a young boy in the country listening to Allan Magnus, Winston Williams, Barry G and others, I would dream about going on the radio. “This is full circle for me and I'm very happy to be doing this,” Muschette told the Jamaica Observer yesterday, a day after officially joining The Edge, one of two radio stations within the Observer Media Group. Jamaica's top morning radio host Ron Muschette will present a brand-new show to his legion of listeners, starting Augon The Edge 105 FM, in a development that represents a homecoming of sorts for the man who got his first break in the business at Sandals Montego Bay more than two decades ago.

Muschette will begin his morning show on the station on August 3. Morning radio's top presenter Ron Muschette gives the thumbs up inside the studio of The Edge 105 FM on Tuesday.
