Last week on Tech Talk presented by SumnerOne we welcomed back our expert, Steve Heinle, to The Big 550 KTRS. Steve joined Guy Phillips to talk about what it means to be a critical consumer.

Last week on Tech Talk presented by SumnerOne, our lead engineer, Jeff Groby joined Guy Phillips and Julie Buck to talk about online scams. Julie was even so kind to welcome Jeff to KTRS with a fun saying from her many years on the radio, "Don't be nervous. Don't be rocky. You're our special guest disc jockey!" All joking aside, Jeff had a very serious topic to address: What are some different types of scams circulating and what part you can play in ensuring that they are unsuccessful.

SumnerOne is excited to bring Drake Systems, a strong, local company based in Tulsa, Oklahoma into our family of companies. Drake Systems has a well-known reputation in the Tulsa market for maintaining high standards of loyalty, fairness, and forthrightness.
