Steve Novack, Oldies 99.5 WGY-FM Albany (Schenectady) NY | 1992
Contributor Steve Bleecker submitted this skimmer tape of himself as Steve Novack on the old WGY-FM, which at the time was one of two Oldies outlets in the Capital Distrcit. Steve Writes: Wow…it’s mid February- early March 1992, and I’m Doing weekends at THE Legendary WGY…The “FM Side” ! So COLD to get into my…
Winter Composite: 55 KSD St. Louis | January, 1979
Introducing new Contributor Bob Buchhauer, and the first of many original airchecks! Bob says he’s not very tech-saavy, but he decided to scope these down for us, and judging by his first attempt, we’re not complaining! Here’s what appears to be a full-day composite of 55 KSD (Now News/Talk KTRS), beginning with Ron Morgan’s morning…
Bob “Vernon with a V” on 66 WNBC New York | Summer, 1976
Bob Vernon is heard on this great, mid-70s PM Drive show on the old WNBC. Notables on this aircheck: My favorite top of hour legal ID: “Fifty-Thousand Watts Clear Channel. This is the Flagship station of the National Broadcasting Company. Sixty Six, W N B C New York!” Talk about being proud as a peacock!…
Slammin’ Felix Sama, 96.5 WPOW “Power 96” Miami | September 17, 1996
It’s Midnight at the start this 17-minute scope of ‘Miami’s Power Station’. Primarily a Hip Hop station, at this point in time, WPOW is playing a wide variety of music pulling from several genres – from Hispanic to Old Skool to 90s mainstream hits, this is a unique blend of everything non-Rock and non-Country. Honestly,…
Dennis Elliot, 94.5 WPEZ Pittsburgh | 1976
Some say that a radio station’s storied past helps to guide the station’s present. Whether or not that’s true depends upon the station and market. Today’s Classic Hits format at WWSW might pull from its history as one of Pittsburgh’s legendary Top 40 stations, WPEZ. This aircheck moves along at light speed, using a shotgun…
Randy Evans, 790 KJRB Spokane WA | 1977
Randy Evans is offbeat, funny and fast – in fact, this morning show is as good as any we’ve posted on this site. Greg Marshack is the newsman (listen closely just after the 8 minute mark or you’ll miss Evans mentioning his name). Other voices include Gary Daniels and Marie McAllister. This whole show runs…
Jade Alexander, ‘Thursday Evening’ on WHYI “Y100” Miami | September 17, 1996
Its not often we post 1990s CHR airchecks, but this one is notable for some less than obvious reasons. First, it came in on a cassette (digital airchecking wouldn’t really become mainstream for about 10 years from this). Second, this is NOT a morning show, but a late afternoon show, transitioning into a live 7-midnight…
