Imus In The Morning – Last Day on 66 WNBC New York | 1988
Don Imus… love him or hate him, he’s sure been around a long time. After WNBC was a long-standing Morning gig at SportsRadio 66 WFAN (that made HOW many years on one frequency?), then to onetime rival 77 WABC, where Imus has been since 2007. In this particular aircheck, you’ll hear the I-man clearly state…

Holiday Sampler: Dido, on 93.7 KRQQ Tucson | December 23, 1995
Here’s the first of a few “Holiday Sampler” scopes we’ll post this year as we get ready for that time of year again! 93.7 KRQ is, in this recording, an Urban/Rhythmic-leaning CHR station. In fact, the station has been Top 40/CHR since 1977! I’m not sure of the exact year (1988 or 89), but under…

Composite: 93.1 WPOC Baltimore | July 18, 1999
Some things were just MEANT to be shared! If you’re a fan of Country music, this aircheck will warm your heart. From the middle of the last great period in Country music, where the stars of the 90s, like Travis Tritt & Alan Jackson were still hot, and the upcoming stars of the 2000s, such…

Alan Kabel, 99.5 WLOL Minneapolis | November, 1990
Somewhere, there’s a composite of this station featuring current New York superstar Broadway Bill Lee. While you search for that, high energy and a Rap/Rhythmic lean highlight this incredible aircheck! Ice Ice Baby is #1 this particular week, although its not clear if the song is #1 Billboard or just #1 at the station. This…

The Morning Zoo, 104.3 KQKS Denver | September, 1989
A very tight and well executed format is our critique of the former CHR station known as “KS-104”. They don’t give their names, but the two jocks heard here are hosting the “Morning Zoo”. This is the end of the 1980s, a time when many CHR’s in different markets identified as “Zoo”, in some manner,…

Dave Otto, 107.5 KRXY (Lakewood) Denver | 1987
Our first new aircheck for the Fall of 2015 features veteran jock Dave Otto, holding down the morning gig at the former Y108 Denver. KRXY-FM’s Morning show is fast paced, but a bit less structured as many of today’s Morning shows go. It appears that the show is more music-intensive than modern AM Drive slots…

Bill Lee, 610 KFRC San Francisco | December 13, 1980
Its hard to believe 1980 was so long ago. Well, KFRC is heading towards the end of this first year of the decade of big hair and shortly airing a tribute to John Lennon, who was killed earlier that year. The big movie in 1980 was Xanadu and KFRC is playing plenty of the hits…

Brother Sam & 70s at 7, WTBT Tampa “Thunder 103-5” | August 26, 1999
Here is a rare, unscoped slice of Classic Rocker “Thunder 103.5”, back when it was still on 103.5. At its peak, the station was #1, 25-54 in 2001. 103.5 flipped to Country in 1005. In fact, a short article on Wikipedia says this of WTBT: The station formerly went by “Thunder 103.5” as a classic…
