Margaret Jones on 97.1 WYNY New York | Autumn, 1979
Courtesy of new contributor Ray Bozzanca in Florida, here’s a high-quality 14 minute scope of WYNY in its “New York 97″ incarnation. Ray writes:
After hearing the Larry Kenny aircheck and hearing Margaret on that aircheck, I dug out some of my old reel to reel tapes.Back in those days of radio if you sent in a letter to the radio station to the DJ, if you were lucky you would get back a signed photo to see what the DJ looked like! I have such a photo of Margaret you can post with the aircheck
(See top left corner).
This ‘check starts out with Margaret Jones talking to Steve O’Brien (WABC, WCBS-FM, Sirius), who was apparently in the studio but off mic.
I was involved in a internet radio station as a sidekick in 1997. I am not involved with that anymore but have radio friends in the business in Long Island. I now live in Florida. One such friend was Mike Erickson who sent a aircheck on himself which I saw posted here on your site
You can hear Mike Erickson on WSHR Ronkonkoma NY HERE.

WOW - talk about a memory jogger - Margaret Jones on ‘YNY - and talkin about SOB!! And how can you forget Gimbel’s??
What a refreshing air talent. She sounds like the kind of woman you’d not only want to listen to on the radio, but you’d like to sit and have a cup of coffee with. Very nice. Where is Margaret Jones today?
