Jeff Goodrich, 93.1 WDRQ Detroit | 1972
Contributor Paul Ford sent this in a while back… it’s 1972 and DRQ is airing The Last … Contest. Certainly wasn’t the last contest ever aired on WDRQ, nor anywhere else, but the contest voicers sound the same no matter what station it was done on (can you say KCBQ?). The audio quality on this…
Mike Hotaling, WQBK/WQBJ “The Edge”, Albany NY | Winter 1994
Description by Mike Hotaling: “Here’s a check of WQBK/WQBJ The Edge, Wintertime 1994. Lots of phones, good quality. Towards the end of this one is my interview of local Albany TV legend Ralph Vartigan. It is a great trip down memory lane as Ralph talks about the early days of television. I’m so glad I…
Paul Grundas, Xtra 104 Washington DC | February, 1996
Here’s a rare recording of the 104.1 WXTR Waldorf MD/103.9 WXVR Frederick MD simulcast from shortly after the format change to all-70s. We’re not sure what daypart this is from, but considering the lack of commercials it’s a good bet this is from the overnight. Paul Grundas only mentions his name once, but we do…
Alan Kabel, WYTZ “Z95” Chicago | 1988
Contributor Alan Kabel (WZOU Boston) presents himself for our critique here in this 8 minute scope of himself on WYTZ “Z95” Chicago. The energy level is off the scale here, on one of the tightest scopes you’ll hear anywhere!
Julie Slater, WAXQ “Q104-3” New York | November 25, 1995
As part of our ‘Annonymous’ collection, here’s what we really SHOULD call a MicroCheck. One break of the old Active Rocker Q104-3, which has been a Classic Rocker for some time now. Probably the hardest rocking station on the planet at one point in time, WAXQ was one of three stations playing Rock in New…
Henry Nelson, WHRK “K97” Memphis | November 20, 1984
Contributor Henry Nelson (WMC-FM 100) gave us this glimpse one of Memphis’ most popular stations, WHRK “K97”. It’s a Tuesday morning and Nelson goes by a different name here, on the morning show, Henry Seeds. You’ll hear lots of commercials, a couple of news updates by Angela Murry, and many morning show features that are…
JoJo Kincaid in Boston – WEGQ Lawrence/Boston “Eagle 93-7” | January 9, 1998
One might argue that “The Eagle” was a station ahead of it’s time. Of course, it really wasn’t, but perhaps Bostonians weren’t quite ready for this genuine dose of 70s & 80s, graciously delivered by one of Boston’s legendary FM jocks, JoJo Kincaid. JoJo made a huge name for himself two decades earlier, at the…
Killabrew, 94-9 WZTA Miami Beach | March 25, 2004
I never know just who I’m going to run across when doing these airchecks… Killabrew, featured here on 94-9 Zeta “South Florida’s New Rock Alternative”, was also in Memphis at WMFS “93X” sometime before my tenure in the WMC-TV/AM/FM complex that housed MFS. Here’s a station that really rocks, and for those of you who…
