I don't know for sure, but people naturally assume broadcasters make more than they typically do because they hear about how much Howard Stern and Katie Couric make. I would have to guess that Lavar probably makes about $300K because of his NFL background. B. Mitch was making $150K at WTEM before he was let go. It seems that $150k is about what a decent talent makes in drive-time, so I would have to guess Dukes is somewhere in the $125K to $150K range.

There is a huge drop-off between the true on-air people and producers who happen to get on the air. I would think Drab is probably making about $50K at most.

I have no idea what he is making now. It sounds like he does sales for ManGrates, but I really couldn't guess.

As a midday shift, I would guess they probably made between $65K and $75K each.

Keep in mind that WJFK brings in about $10 million a year in gross revenue. So the idea that CBS is throwing several million dollars at the Junkies, etc, is kind of suspect. The GM, senior sales managers, etc, are probably all bringing in pretty decent pay, so that all impacts what CBS is willing to allocate to talent at a station that typically lands in the high teens/low 20s in the ratings.
