Steve West, 99.7 WMC-FM Memphis | May 7, 2005
It’s a “Whatever Weekend” on FM 100! WMC-FM (CBS, inc) had its answer to the “Jack-FM” craze which saw the demise of such legendary stations as WCBS-FM New York and others (fortunately, that was a short lived debacle). Most weekends in 2005 saw the HotAC ratings leader essentially flip to a Classic Hits station, pretend…
Banana Don’s Final Show on 100.7 WZPT Pittsburgh | January 31, 1997
Originally posted in December of 2005, returned today with upgraded audio quality! Listen now to Stoney Richards and Banana Don Jefferson’s morning show – they went out with a bang. Another great aircheck of a market we sure need more airchecks from – Pittsburgh!
MicroChexx: A Promo and ID from WMXX Jackson TN | October 11, 2005
In October, 2005, your webmaster was frantically recording as much of West Tennessee radio as possible before moving out of the area permanently. I’m not sure where I recorded this clip from, but it was either from the 3rd floor of 1070 Union Avenue in the WMC-FM studios or at my apartment in East Memphis.…
Coyote Calhoun on 79 WAKY Louisville | January 5, 1979
Courtesy of former WAKY alumn Tom Prestigiacomo, here’s Coyote Calhoun on Wacky! This is a relatively short aircheck, but good nonetheless. 1979 was a great year for AM top 40, albeit the last year many AM stations played music. WAKY was to be around well into the 80s (check out the 79 WAKY Tribute Site…
Chris Gable, 97.1 WYNY New York | Sometime, 1979
Believe it or not, this is scoped down from a two hour file to only 3 minutes. A testament to the way people recorded music in the days before CD ripping and mp3 downloads, the source tape was chocked full of complete songs, but most of the ‘other’ elements, which we at this website prize,…
Alex Bennett – WIOD Miami | 1989
Alex Bennett is called by “Super” Dave, recording for “California Aircheck”, “the latest national aircheck service’ for the publication “Radio and Records”. Remember when R&R was a MUST READ for jocks in the studio? These guys talk about the state of Radio in 1989 and name drop guys like Johnny Dark, Scott Shannon, etc. If…
QuickChexx: Chuck Leonard, 107.5 WBLS New York | Summer, 1989
Contributor Robyn Watts struck gold sending these countless editions of “California Aircheck” tapes to us here at Airchexx! Featured here is a QuickCheck – under five minutes scoped of the late Chuck Leonard (WABC, WRKS, WBLS, WQEW). Chuck is so comfortable doing this format its as if he totally belongs here among the WBLS family.…
New Year Predictions – 1360 WDRC Hartford | December 31, 1975
These dire, yet hardly believable predictions for the new year 1976 were made by the WDRC News Department. Imagine listening to this and hearing a prediction that then President Ford was going to be shot! Its amazing this stuff made it to air! Contributor Steve Tefft sent this in, in time for New Years but…
