Pat Garrett, 93 KHJ Los Angeles | April 13, 1978
The beginning of the end for KHJ could probably be traced here. Pat Garrett is a capable and really good sounding jock, but blends in a bit TOO well with the music and elements that together were called “The NEW Sound of Position 93 KHJ”. POSITION 93? Actually, quite a bit has been written about…
Eric Chase, 64 KFI Los Angeles | April 13, 1978
64 KFI, Eric Chase with Johnny Nash, who formerly didn’t see Diddly… Eric Chase is another one of those California legends who was heard on so many of the big stations up and down the coast. Perhaps spoken a bit less about than, say, M.G. Kelly, or Robert W. Morgan. But he’s definitely cut from…
Charlie Van Dyke, 93 KHJ Los Angeles | May 5, 1977
Van Dyke & Company is how the show was identified when Charlie arrived at 68 WRKO in Boston. But here at KHJ, CVD simply shined! A man who was funny and had a great set of pipes (which nearly everyone has heard due to his TV station imaging), Charlie Van Dyke was perfect for the…
Jim Conlee, 1020 KTNQ Los Angeles | 1979

Ken Gilbert, “Jukebox Saturday Night”, 102.9 WDRC-FM Hartford | 1985
From Contributor Ken Gilbert (Current Morning Man at 92.1 WVTK Port Henry, NY)! Ken writes: “This is an aircheck from around (19)85? Dean Richards helps me open Juke Box Saturday Night on WDRC FM.) There’s more heritage at 102.9 WDRC-FM than most stations can boast! Perhaps a great place to start is Man From Mars…
Al Dixon, 1600 WAPX Montgomery | February 24, 1975
Over 40 years ago, little R&B station WAPX made national headlines when a group of Muslim terrorists took over the station, tried to incite a Muslim uprising and then had a shootout with police. October 12, 1974, to be precise. You can read all about that right here. One of the men who was taken…

This DOES feature the latest Tom Birch aircheck, the beginning of it scattered in and about this interview, which lasts 30 minutes. The rest?…
