Who was the voice of Marshal Dillon on radio Gunsmoke...?

[Master Zinja]

To do with the radio edition of Gunsmoke:

Dillon was played by William Conrad. Parley Baer was Chester (he was the mayor of Mayberry on Andy Griffith), Howard McNear was Doc (he was Floyd The Barber on AG), and Kitty was Georgia Ellis. The first season or two was a little rough, but not bad. By the end of the second season, the scripts were great, the characters fleshed out & it was incredible. I listened to every episode - 480! - from October last year until June this year. In many ways superior to the TV version (and many scripts were later used on TV as well).

I am going to swing for the fences with his question.

William Conrad—who later played Cannon...???

I had the chance to hear Gunsmoke on the radio as a kid.
