A sample of AM drive on 1050 WHN New York | 1986
In the waning days of Country music at WHN, here’s a look at how mornings sounded just before the end. By 1987, WHN would be gone, having flipped to All-Sports as 1050 WFAN, which would move the next year in what was known as the big switch, down to 660 upon the expiration of WNBC.…
Frank Holler, 1410 WPOP Hartford | May 18, 1969
AM was still king in Hartford and all around the USA when this recording of WPOP was made. Now, unless you’re intimately familiar with the Bill Drake “Boss Radio” Top 40 format, you probably think this is his handiwork. Someone out there knows for sure, but it sure sounds like WPOP ran a Drake knock-off…
QuickChexx: Tracey, 1300 WAVZ New Haven | May 17, 1969
We’re back into the 1960s for this short clip of WAVZ New Haven. This is the Tracey show, although we’re not sure who Tracey is or where he went after WAVZ. One thing that sticks out on many of the WAVZ airchecks on this site is the frequency at which Railroad Salvage ads air. Many…

Composite: 79 WQXI Atlanta | September 1966
It’s old but it’s a great cross section of talent, some of whom include Dr. Don Rose (KFRC) and Tony Taylor (WOR-FM)! This is mid-60s WQXI, with lots of reverb, cheesy pop tunes and tons of PAMS jingles! Since we’ve become the de-facto WQXI historical site (WQXI is our most popular station according to stats),…
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…
