WAVF 96 Wave FM Charleston | April 5, 1996
This particular broadcast, the station is live at a club downtown Charleston, back when remote broadcasts, really were, live.
“Easy” Wendahl, 730 WPAL “Power 73” Charleston | April 6, 1996
The audio quality may not be the best, however, this is an historic aircheck from the standpoint that I don’t think there’s a recording of WPAL Charleston out there anywhere, and it’s yet another AM station lost to the ages.
Big Mack, Z93 WWWZ Charleston | April 28 1988
Charleston, South Carolina’s WWWZ, 93.3 FM, launched on May 10, 1974 with a freeform format. The station broadcast from a mobile home in Summerville, SC. The station was referred to as “3WZ“. In 1981, WWWZ flipped to an Urban leaning format as “The New Z93.” In 1999, Z93 added new hosts to “Big Mack…
Big Mack, 1250 WTMA Charleston | April 30, 1982
For many years, 1250 WTMA was a Pop powerhouse in Charleston. WTMA flipped to a Top 40 format in the early 1960s and was hugely successful. As the late 70’s approached, WTMA’s numbers started to falter, as was happening to many AM Top 40 stations around the country . WTMA morphed in to an…
Charlie Bird Lindsay, 103.5 WEZL Charleston | June, 1988
Here’s the ‘old’ 80s version of Hot Country “Weazel 103.5” WEZL. The Weazel was a name used up until about 1991 or so, when Charlie Bird Lindsay, Larry Farina and a few others left WEZL and became part of a group that purchased the old Q-107. They were able to do that because Q-107 was…
The Wakeup Crew, 96.1 WAVF (Hannahan) Charleston | June, 1988
Charleston, as with so many markets these days, has had a lot of format and frequency changes since the new millenium took hold. The 96.1 frequency is certainly no exception. At one point, WAVF, known as “96 Wave-FM”, was a very popular Mainstream, then Alternative, Rock station. Their yearly “Battle of the Bands” attracted numerous…
Mark Cardnella, 96.9 WXTC Charleston | June, 1988
Here is a glimpse of 96.9 FM after it emerged from the long dark tunnel of Beautiful Music, which WXTC was from the early 70s after it changed call letters from the heritage WCSC. Hurricane Hugo would devastate the Lowcountry just a few months after this was recorded, but the station survived a few more…
The Top 5 At 10 – A Sample of WSSX Charleston, SC | July 28, 1998
I wish I could tell you who the jock is on this aircheck, but in the 45 minutes of the original recording, he never says his name once. No jock imaging is heard… nothing! But its obvious from this 6-plus minute scope that 95-SX is all about the music and their audience. We join the…
