QuickChexx: A Sample of 91.3 WRBC Lewiston ME | February, 1987
With not much audio to go on and virtually no information about this one, we looked up the info and this is the station of Bates College up in Lewiston Maine. The amateur nature of the jocks gives it away pretty quickly. But you have to give them credit, these students gave it a good…
O’Brien In The Morning, WSB-FM B-98.5 Atlanta | April 7, 1987
We often think about the late 1980s as not that long ago. After all, most of us remember the 80s… MTV when it played music videos, hits from Madonna, Steve Winwood and more. But, it really was a long time ago. As of this posting, it was almost twenty-six years ago when Sugar Ray Leonard…

A Program Director’s dream length aircheck coming in at about 3 and a half minutes, WPHR is the CHR station known as “Power 108”! Because this is short there is really not much we can say about this. Jim Hart is heard first, he says his goodbye and turns the station over to Calvin Hicks…

When people in the Albany NY area think of their favorite AM radio stations growing up, the first one that comes to mind is usually 1540 WPTR. The next one, undoubtedly, is 980 WTRY. Never a runner-up, at least in presentation, ‘TRY ran Top 40 until sometime in late 1983 or 84. By the time…

Sent in many years ago, here’s a composite featuring the state of the FM dial in 1987, in the Southern Appalacian region of Tennessee and north Georgia. While this doesn’t represent Memphis, much of the eastern part of the state is covered by these big stations, such as Power 96 (95.7) and WOKI. From Country…

From the world’s best Aircheck site, here’s a composite of the greatest hit music station of all time! Sorry kiddies, WABC may have been first and fantastic, but Z100 was and still is the hottest station on the planet. The greatest jingles from Jam, a fantastic Top Hour ID from Ernie Anderson, and personalities like…
