Jackson Armstrong, 1020 KTNQ Los Angeles | December, 1978
Jack Armstrong is on top of his game in this, a 2004 donation to our site by Matt Seinberg at BigAppleAirchecks.com. Right off the bat, the gorilla is right there with Jack and the fun starts from the first song! Armstrong is doing the morning show this particular day. Too bad he wasn’t around 10…

Cavalcade of Hits – The “Pre-Boss Radio” KHJ Los Angeles | 1965
Among the many tapes laying around the airchexx studio is one Fuji DR 90 cassette, most of which has already been posted. On side 1, the first 30 minutes or so is a soon to be posted aircheck of Steve Jay on 1360 KGB San Diego. Next, sandwiched in between that and the historic format…
Dan Ingram, 101.1 KRTH Los Angeles | June 24, 1998 – Part 2
First off, big thanks to Big Apple Airchecks for another blockbuster aircheck donation! Matt’s been with us since the beginning and a simple thanks, oftentimes, is simply not enough. So visit his site! Here’s part two of Dan Ingram’s ‘tryout’. While the exact date of this aircheck isn’t readily apparent, Robert W. Morgan had passed…
Dan Ingram, 101.1 KRTH Los Angeles | June 24, 1998 – Part 1
East meets West! Or, to put it a different way, try to imagine yourself in 1970-something, listening to Dan Ingram on 93/KHJ. Big Dan delivered a one liner better than Robert W. Morgan! This proves something else. RKO General’s quick into and out of every element was far tighter than anything in the ABC chain,…
The True Don Bleu, 93 KHJ Los Angeles | 1979
Restored from mud (because thats how it sounded at first playback), here’s a micro-aircheck of The True Don Bleu, who sounds more upbeat somehow on a subdued 93 KHJ. The clock was ticking toward the upcoming (but nobody knew just yet) Country format the following year, and KHJ still managed to play the hits. I’ve…
QuickChexx: Charlie Tuna, 1020 KTNQ Los Angeles | 1979
Good morning, 9:03 with Charlie Tuna, on L.A.’s Original Rock & Roll Radio Station Here’s a very short and somewhat muddy recording that I think was made sometime in 1979. Could have been ’78. Digging around, I (re)found this interesting page on Ten-Q on //www.socalradiohistory.com/. While it doesn’t go into great detail of AM 1020’s…
Bobby Ocean & John Sebastian, “Position 93” KHJ Los Angeles | April 14, 1978
It’s simple, we want to be YOUR radio station – KHJ …Which they WERE, for a very long time. One has to wonder what line of thinking lead to the days of “Position 93”. Top 40? Yes. Exciting? Not really, if you’re judging the station by this aircheck. The music, especially during Bobby Ocean’s show,…
