Dave Otto, 107.5 KRXY (Lakewood) Denver | 1987
Our first new aircheck for the Fall of 2015 features veteran jock Dave Otto, holding down the morning gig at the former Y108 Denver. KRXY-FM’s Morning show is fast paced, but a bit less structured as many of today’s Morning shows go. It appears that the show is more music-intensive than modern AM Drive slots…
Kevin Matthews, “Night Service”, WLUP The Loop AM 1000 Chicago | August 12, 1987
The great experiment to see if a Talk/AOR hybrid format would work on AM is fully on display here, at the former WCFL Chicago AM 1000 digs, at this point known as “The Loop AM 100 WLUP”. The Night Service is on the air, with Kevin Matthews and a lot of characters, phoners and *some*…
Dan Taylor and the WNBC “Time Machine” | September 12, 1987
Its been said that nobody could imitate WABC’s Dan Ingram. If anyone could get close, though, Dan Taylor could. VERY close! In this edition of the WNBC Time Machine, Larry Scott opens with News On The Hour featuring some interesting stories about people long gone now. Terri Raskin reports WNBC Traffic & Transit, then there’s…
Leo Knott, 102.3 KJLH Los Angeles | 1984-89
The late Leo Knott contributed this aircheck of himself on KJLH Los Angeles back in 2007. Description by Contributor… This aircheck features myself at Stevie Wonder’s KJLH (Kindness, Joy, Love and Happiness)… My longest stint as a jock. Had nice success with KJLH’s Sunday Oldies Show — (#1 Arbitron. Took my oldies act to KACE,…

Bob Hopa, 101.1 WHOT-FM Youngstown | August 5, 1987
You can win SUPER CASH from Hot-FM-101! Or, Stick It and Win! Lots of contesting, as was the norm at so many CHR stations by the end of the 1980s. Bob Hopa is in the air chair for this tightly scoped three-minute glimpse of WHOT. This is very short, and there’s not much to write…
Robin Marshall on WPIX 102 New York | Autumn, 1987
WPIX blew through several different formats in the 80s, before finally ditching the WPIX call letters and settling on Smooth Jazz. Towards the end, it was a soft AC station. This is a perfect example of what SOFT AC really was. Very few stations go this soft today. Owned and operated by Tribune Broadcasting, the…
Jim Kerr, Morning Drive, WPLJ “Power 95” New York | November 1987
Another step in the evolution of WPLJ 95.5, at the time of this aircheck known as “Power 95”. For a time, ABC corporate actually changed the calls to WWPR, but it’s still ‘PLJ here. Notice the “WPLJ New York” Legal buried in a stopset. Jim Kerr is a capable morning jock, and this, thankfully, is…
