Ron Lundy, Midday Show, MusicRadio 77 WABC New York | March 18, 1980
Courtesy of Contributor Steven Green, here’s an excellent quality recording of the legendary Ron Lundy, just being himself on 77 WABC. It may be 1980, but WABC is still the top 40 station everyone grew up with. That would change later in the year with the addition of Yankees baseball, which displaced night driver Howard…
Don Geronimo, 95.5 WPGC Morningside | June 25, 1980
Courtesy of contributor Russ Horton’s Mr Aircheck channel on Facebook, Here’s one of our longtime favorite jocks, Don Geronimo.

Welcome to another classic radio aircheck from the Milford/New Haven market. There are very few recordings floating around of WFIF…
Frank Kingston Smith, 98.5 WROR Boston – The Tall Ships Arrive! | May 30, 1980
Here’s a real quick aircheck recorded by contributor Julian Porter, who was in Boston around this time period, recording radio in the Boston area.
