Don Geronimo on WXLO 99X New York | 1976
From the heyday of New York’s 99X, comes this aircheck featuring up and coming Don Geronimo (of Don & Mike fame). Geronimo went on to work at WPGC Washington DC, and later WAVA Arlington (VA) before ending up at WJFK doing syndicated talk. Compare this with the WAVA aircheck elsewhere on this site and see…
Al Bandiero on WKTU (92-KTU) New York | Sometime 1985
The date which accompanied this particular aircheck says February ’79. Obviously wrong, but this is another great aircheck from your webmaster’s favorite DJ (yea, the guy who inspired me to go into radio in the first place… to think of all the instability I could have avoided… thanks Al!). This is from 1985 – proven…

Human Newman, WHTZ Z100 New York | May 21, 1993
1993 was an interesting year for pop music.

Conspicuously missing on Z100 is anything resembling a beat, except that…
Composite: 1050 WHN New York | 1980
It occurs to us in light of the brand new 94.7 Nash-FM in New York City, that there was a very successful Country station in the Big Apple some 30 plus years ago when the excitement was still on AM. Looking back, 1980 could be looked at as the era of the best ratings and…
A Tribute to The Greaseman: Part 1 – Doug Tracht, 92.3 WXRK New York | March 30, 1993
PARENTAL GUIDANCE SUGGESTED! Part one of our Greaseman Tribute takes us back to 1993. Here’s Grease doing what he does best (if you can understand “Grease Lingo”) on K-Rock. And we wonder why the good folks there never had the presence of mind to bring him back when ratings were slumping… this is GREAT! We…
