Scott Woodside, 107.3 WRQX Washington DC | October 16, 1986
Often, airchecks arrive here with a slightly incorrect date. The only reason (outside of the music) that this was noticed was Scott Woodside’s comment about the Red Sox making a huge mistake the previous night. As it turns out, the previous night was Game 6 of the 1986 World Series between the New York Mets…
“Fast” Jimi Roberts, 95.5 WPLJ New York | January 25, 1990
…You’ve made the switch to more commercial-free music guaranteed! What did WPLJ sound like as the 1990s started? THIS!. Here’s Fast Jimi Roberts on a truly HOT CHR station at that time.

New York City Rock Wars, featuring WHTZ, WAPP and WPLJ | August, 1983
You are talking about the nonsensical ravings of a lunatic mind… Narrated by Contributor Matt Seinberg of Big Apple Airchecks, this long composite logs the opening days of Z100… commercial free for a whole month! Then it moves on to a few minutes of 103.5 WAPP. An album rock station with jingles and *some* hit…

Marleen Foxx, 107.3 WRQX Washington | February 24, 1979
Something quite rare, donated by Big Apple Airchecks. Here is “Rock 107” during WRQX‘s rather short Album Rock format which ended shortly after this aircheck was recorded. Marleen Foxx is heard with her rather seductive voice (in my humble opinion) giving an impassionate plea to commuters to just stay home if they don’t have snow…
15 Years of Album Rock. 95.5 WPLJ New York | April 22, 1979

The whole special was 48 hours, describing and featuring the great acts of Rock music from the early 1960s to then-present. This is the final hour of that special. Airing during David Fontana’s show, the special was narrated by…
