New York City Radio Dial Scan | June 1984
Back in June 1984, I was hosting an afternoon radio show in Atlantic City, NJ. To help make me better on the radio, I would make trips to New York City and record the radio stations there, hoping to learn from them. I would tune up & down the dial, trying to record as many…
New York City Radio Dial Scan | March 1984
It’s March 1984. You’re in New York, as you tune around the radio dial. This recording is an example of what you would have head. I was driving around New York, and just tuning up & down the dial, and recording what I head. You’ll hear many of the big players, like 101.1 WCBS-FM, Z100…

Dick Summer; “Mouth vs Ear”, 97.1 WYNY New York | January 1979
Dick Summer has become a good friend to us here at Airchexx and its always great when he sends in something REALLY special. This time, we’re back in New York, at 30 Rock and the studios of WYNY “New York 97”. The control room is packed for another exciting edition of “Mouth vs Ear”. Dick…
Chris Gable, 97.1 WYNY New York | Sometime, 1979
Believe it or not, this is scoped down from a two hour file to only 3 minutes. A testament to the way people recorded music in the days before CD ripping and mp3 downloads, the source tape was chocked full of complete songs, but most of the ‘other’ elements, which we at this website prize,…
Bruce Bradley, 97.1 WYNY New York | Summer, 1980
One of our original contributors from way back in 2002, Alan Fletcher, included this on something he called “AM/FM Snippets”. There were two discs, as I recall and some tapes that he had sent also. This is an excerpt from the original Volume 1, featuring Bruce Bradley in AM drive. It’s from, I THINK, July…
Dick Summer, “New York 97” WYNY (97.1) | 1979
A recent contribution from Ray Bozzanca, this scoped recording of fan favorite Dick Summer on the old AC station WYNY from 1979 when it was still at 97.1 FM. This is somewhat of a disappointment, since much of Summer’s content was edited out of the original recording. Frankly, I’m surprised that more airchecks don’t come…
Margaret Jones, 97 WYNY New York | Autumn 1979
Contributor Ray Bozzanca was one of many fans of the late Margaret Jones, as evidenced by this letter sent by her in response to our contributor’s writing to her. Ray wrote: Attached is the letter Margaret sent to me along with her signed photo from 1979.I spoke to Margaret on the phone while she was…
