Sample: Dr. Bop (Hoyt Locke), 1590 WAWA West Allis, Wisconsin
Webmaster note: This aircheck came to us in three parts. For the sake of presentation, I combined all three into one single aircheck for your listening enjoyment. – Steve West Description by Contributor: These recordings of Dr. Bop are extremely rare and except for your site, I have never found one on any other air…
Composite: 68 WRKO Boston | September 1975
Was 1975 really that long ago? I mean, really. We were just kids. Summers were hot, our parents not too old and we went everywhere on vacation. I always had a radio wherever we went. And I swear, everywhere east of my hometown picked up WRKO. this sounds so NORMAL to me. I must’ve been…
QuickChexx: Steve Novak, WGY-FM “Oldies 99.5” Schenectady NY | Winter 1992
Contributor Steve Bleecker is featured here in this short example of the relatively short-lived Oldies format at the former WGY-FM 99.5. Licensed to Schenectady NY, this signal serves the Albany/Troy market in upstate New York. This is a clean, interference free recording made by our Contributor. We don’t have anything else here of this era…
Gary Russel, 970 WWDJ Hackensack NJ | December 1972
97 WWDJ… the little station that could. And DID. For a time, this station did actually compete with Midtown Manhattan for the ears of Top 40 radio listeners. We don’t know the complete background of WWDJ, but we have restored a somewhat muffled aircheck as best as possible so that our visitors may listen to…
Don Reegan, 98.7 WXLO New York | November, 1972
October 23, 1972 may not stand out as anything memorable. Its not a day that lives in infamy. It’s someone’s birthday out there, for sure (Happy birthday, to whomever this concerns!). In our case, it is the date we’ve been searching for. On 10/23/72, RKO General changed the call letters of its New York radio…
QuickChexx: Rick Shaw, 98.7 WOR-FM New York | Winter, 1972
Rick Shaw is possibly best remembered for his days at 610 KFRC San Francisco. It is likely no coincidence that Shaw was on both stations, as KFRC and WOR-FM were co owned by RKO-General. This moves right along, and as short as this clip is, you get a feel for the radio station and for…
QuickChexx: Joe McCoy, 98.7 WOR-FM New York | Winter, 1972
Continuing where the Mark Driscoll aircheck left off, here’s former CBS-FM Programmer Joe McCoy doing his thing on WOR-FM! It’s a snowy Winter day in the Big Apple and Joe’s going to be giving away a top-10 album ‘very soon’ – don’t miss it!

Mark Driscoll, 98.7 WOR-FM New York | Winter, 1972
The legacy of New York’s 98.7 continues now with this late edition of WOR-FM featuring the pipes of Mark Driscoll. Listening to this, one might wonder why RKO General felt the need to change call letters. WOR-FM sounds here, much as WXLO sounded a year later, only with different jocks. Listen to the variety! While…
