MicroChexx: A Promo and ID from WMXX Jackson TN | October 11, 2005
In October, 2005, your webmaster was frantically recording as much of West Tennessee radio as possible before moving out of the area permanently. I’m not sure where I recorded this clip from, but it was either from the 3rd floor of 1070 Union Avenue in the WMC-FM studios or at my apartment in East Memphis.…
Format Change: WMBZ 94.1 The Buzz Memphis flips to Snap! 94.1 | October 27, 2006
This one is very much an example of the cause-and-effect of corporate mergers. Consider the previous format change at 94.1 FM. Entercom had just closed on the purchase of WOGY-FM from Sinclair Broadcasting in January, 2000. The ink was barely dry on this purchase when it became obvious to most observers that the writing was…

Composite: 1470 WSAC Fort Knox, KY – “Truckin’ 72”
I know virtually nothing about WSAC, other than it was on a low-powered ‘graveyard frequency’. According to this tribute site which credits Paul Urbahns with photos and some old survey sheets (not included in this presentation because we don’t have permission… yet), WSAC went on the air on November 16, 1955 at a power of…
Syd, 92.9 WMFS “93X” Memphis | October 10, 2005
In October of 2005, as your webmaster was preparing to leave Memphis (the first time), I wanted to record a snapshot of the market as it was at that time. It’s also nice knowing the people who you record :). Syd, as I recall, was the promotions director for 93X as well as the midday…
