Mike Demambro, 105.7 WVBF Framingham/Boston | December 31, 1980
…don’t bring any kind of fire water into the city! Salvaged from my personal collection, here’s Mike Demambro on a somewhat subdued WVBF toward the end of the ‘F-105’ era. It’s New Year’s Eve, and WVBF was in the waning days of Top 40 before going what would be VERY soft AC within a year. Still, listen for all the hits as a Boston legend rang in 1981! Most...
Dale Dorman; Steve Lundy, 610 KFRC San Francisco | December 24, 1967
This is our own custom scope from a recording provided by Matt @ BigAppleAirchecks. The whole thing runs just over four minutes out of 20 before I took out the music. Dale Dorman went from KFRC to Boston’s WRKO where he’d do wakeups. He’d also hold down mornings at WVBF Framingham for a while during their “F-105″ Top 40 era, then on to truly legendary status at WXKS-F...
Bud Ballou, WKBW 1520 Buffalo | 1967
Another Frank Davis presentation… Bud Ballou would become legendary in Boston, at 1510 WMEX, then Fairbanks Communication’s WVBF in suburban Framingham.

KB itself is legendary, with a signal that blankets the eastern half of the United States and Canada, from the Maritimes ...
New England Composite, October-November 1978
Original Comments: Close your eyes and imagine yourself in Boston. The year is 1978. You start tuning around the radio dial. You start on the AM band, because that’s where your favorite station has been for many years. You stop for a moment at 680. WRKO is still going strong. They call themselves “New England’s Album Station” at this point in time – a slogan that will...
Y100 Composite – 100.7 WHYI Miami, 1977
Anybody can play music, but it’s personality that really counts on the radio Courtesy of Contributor Rob Grayson, this is an original copy of what seems like an industry pressing done in 1977. I can’t seem to find which one it was, but then, trying to find original Y100 logos from that era is difficult, as well. This is a sample of a typical broadcast day, and it includes commentary fr...
Mark Sebastian & the 5 O’Clock Whistle – 103.3 WHTT Boston | March, 1985

Notice during the promo about 4 1/2 m...
