Lee Roberts on WTIC-FM Hartford | 1978 (25:13)

Thanks to Steve McVie out on Cape Cod, one of my all-time favorite stations. Mike Josephs “Hot Hits” ™ formatted CHR WTIC-FM. There are a number of “Hot Hits” stations profiled here and at other web sites, but none quite capture the engergy and creativity of TIC-FM.

Prior to flipping to Top 40 in 1977, WTIC-FM was a Classical station - the FM sister station to one of America’s original 50kw AM stations WTIC 1080. When it flipped, TIC-FM was an immediate ratings winner.

Lee Roberts was heard on WAVZ and WKCI New Haven prior to moving to WTIC-FM.

    I listened to Lee Roberts when he was at 13 wavz in the late 1970’s. As reliable sources have it Lee was an auto mechanic prior to getting into radio.
    I think the line up at wavz at the time was:
    Judge Harrigan
    Pete Stone (Salant)
    jay ?
    Lee Roberts
    Willie B. Goode
    Peter Bush
    Leese (overnights)

    I think Lee replaced Big Johnny Walker
    And I think Peter Bush replaced Lee Roberts when Lee went to 96 TIC FM.

    That was a fascinating (yawn) report on the lineup.
