WYHY Y-107 Nashville – 1988
More Y-107 Nashville. This was the second offering from Rhett Walker – and it’s even better than the first. More of the broadcast day is heard on this one.
Ron Chapman, 103.7 KVIL Dallas | March, 1988
Here’s part of the Ron Chapman Morning Show on KVIL. Not much in the way of music here, but some beautiful jingles, lots of traffic reports and some news of the time. This is from before the station started calling itself “lite FM”. I’m impressed by the quality of Chapman’s show, and of the music…
Steve Chick, WGY-FM “Electric 99” | November, 1988
Around 1982 or 83, WGY-FM was a CHR station that quite suddenly appeared as a new Capital Region top 40 station known as “Electric 99”. The station entered a hit music race largely dominated by WFLY 92.3, which was the FM sister station of former Top 40 giant 1540 WPTR. This aircheck was made towards…
John Records Landecker, 89 WLS Chicago | March, 1988
Courtesy of longtime contributor Robyn Watts, from California Aircheck tape #96, here’s Chicago’s 890 AM WLS. John Records Landecker is the featured jock on a very TALK intensive show that features very little in the way of music, but still playing the contemporary “AM 89 WLS” jingles from Jam Creative Productions. I’m struck by just…
Christopher Allen, 990 WTIG “Country 99” Massillon OH | December 2, 1988
Another Akron/Canton market area AM station that was still playing music in 1988 – WTIG was known as “Country 99”, and was a full-service Country station serving the local community with live jocks and the standard Country music fare, including syndicated programming… If the Top 40 world had “American Top 40” featuring Casey Casem, the…
Ross Brittain; Harriet Coffee, 106.1 WZGO (Z106) Philadelphia | September 24, 1986
Spanning the changeover from Morning to Midday drive times, here’s a somewhat rough sounding recording of the Ross Brittain morning show (“Brittain for Breakfast”). Our ‘annonymous’ Contributor says this was recorded between 9:45 and 10:30 AM, so what we get to hear is almost constant banter from Ross Brittain and crew, the final stop set…
Alan Kabel, WYTZ “Z95” Chicago | 1988
Contributor Alan Kabel (WZOU Boston) presents himself for our critique here in this 8 minute scope of himself on WYTZ “Z95” Chicago. The energy level is off the scale here, on one of the tightest scopes you’ll hear anywhere!
Tim Byrd, 1390 WXTC (AM) “Charleston’s Oldies Station” | June, 1988
Once again from California Aircheck via Contributor Robyn Watts, we present more from Charleston SC. WXTC (AM) 1390 has flipped formats more than a few times since the 1980s. In this recording made in June, 1988, WXTC is branded as “Charleston’s Oldies Station”. Even though 102.5 WXLY is also doing a form of oldies, er,…
