JoJo Morales; Elvis Duran, 100.3 WHTZ “Z100” New York | 1991
“From the top of the Empire State Building…” It really doesn’t get any better than this! Z100 is blazing hot and always had New York’s best talent! Still does, depending upon who you talk to. Again, from Robyn Watts‘ incredible collection and off side two of East Coast Airchecks Tape 84 side B, we get…
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…
Al Bandiero, 1520 WKBW Buffalo | March 1979
After searching for ten years for another aircheck of the jock who inspired your webmaster to get into radio at the age of 16, here’s Al Bandiero on the legendary WKBW Buffalo! Here’s KB Radio 15 the way many of us remember it – the night show via skip during a bitterly cold winter, and…
Randy Rust, WERQ “92Q” Baltimore | March 1993
Now, an aircheck that’s so short if you don’t turn up the volume, you’ll miss Randy Rust saying “We Only Stop The Music Once An Hour”. In ’93, this CHUrban station was so full of Hip Hop that you had to love it to keep the station locked in. Considering the growing number of Hip…

Bill Ballance, KFWB Los Angeles | August 19, 1959
Here’s one that barely needs any introduction. Bill Ballance was a legendary Deejay from the dawning days of AM Top 40 radio. The format hadn’t been around that long in 1959, but KFWB was on top of the ratings in those days. KFWB began doing Top 40 a year earlier, in 1958. Programmed by Chuck…
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…
Tim Byrd, 1390 WXTC (AM) “Charleston’s Oldies Station” | June, 1988
Once again from California Aircheck via Contributor Robyn Watts, we present more from Charleston SC. WXTC (AM) 1390 has flipped formats more than a few times since the 1980s. In this recording made in June, 1988, WXTC is branded as “Charleston’s Oldies Station”. Even though 102.5 WXLY is also doing a form of oldies, er,…
