Mike Erickson on 91.9 WSHR Lake Ronkonkoma NY | May 31, 2005
And we thought nobody was doing radio like this anymore! Contributor Mike Erickson sent this along on a CD with two home recorded WCBS-FM airchecks that we’ll be featuring starting June 3. This is real, honest-to-goodness Oldies radio done right! And, it’s not done by a station owned by some large corporation, no, this station…
Legal ID’s volume 1: 1990s
First off, lets give credit where credit is due. This collection of legal IDs comes to us courtesy of Scott Fybush. I got this collection of tapes (there were 3 in a series) back in the late 90s. This is part one of what I *think* is the entire collection (maybe a few extras) which…
Mike Greene on WQIO Mt. Vernon Oh | 1988
From new contributor Mike Greene comes this short but super hi-fi quickcheck from the Midwest. Mike emailed this one in from his personal collection. He writes: WQIO was a creation of mine from the ground up. We gutted the old studios, changed the call letters, increased the power to 50,000 watts, hired a completely new…
Brett Summers on 97.5 WONE Akron | August 1986
We don’t have much information on WONE, but we do have one aircheck from 1986. Here’s Brett Summers recorded in the month of August. Anyone with memories of this station, or who knows anything about the jock, please comment below.
Karl Phillips, 1530 WRAI San Juan | Undated
Contributor Karl Phillips has sent in some wonderful goodies, including most of the WQXI airchecks here on the site. Its only appropriate, then, that we take the time to feature one of his own airchecks. Our contributor describes this aircheck: I was in line to be drafted when I worked at Quixie in 1969 so…
Alan Beebe on KMJC El Cajon “Magic 91” | Spring 1977
This aircheck comes to us from Alan Beebe via Matt at Big Apple Airchecks. As the story goes, Beebe gave it to Matt a couple of years ago, and Matt is resending it back to Beebe (and us) since he lost everything in his aircheck collection in Hurricane Katrina. Someone else to remember in your…
MicroChexx: Joe Hager, 1300 WAVZ New Haven | November, 1972
It took longer to write this summary than edit the audio for this slightly under one minute clip of Joe Hager on the “New Waves”. Courtesy of early Airchexx Contributor Andy Bologovsky, here’s another short look and listen to one of America’s great middle-market stations with a huge Major Market sound! WAVZ was one of…
105.7 WVBF Framingham / Boston (F-105) Fantasy Parade | 1977
Here’s a very interesting aircheck of Fairbanks Communications’ then recently-retooled WVBF as Top 40 “F-105”. The ‘check starts out with some strainge sounding robot promos (for lack of a better word), then moves into Frank Kingston Smith opening the F-105 Fantasy Parade in Framingham… conducted from the station rooftop. Sure sounds like they had a…
