Dan Taylor on the 66 WNBC Time Machine | April 16, 1988
Taylor was really on top of his game here. There’s a one-liner for every song…
Dale Parsons on the WNBC Time Machine | December 1987
By 1987, WNBC had figured out that the audience actually increased when the station started playing a regular diet of Oldies. What had started as an experiment earlier in 1987 by Big Jay Sorensen was given a green light to go semi-full time, Weekends and Overnights. The Time Machine, simply put, was a nearly perfect…
Allan Beebe, First Show, 66 WNBC New York | September 1, 1977
…the “All-New WNBC” – Bob Pittman’s mostly failed attempt to remove the expensive personalities and streamline the station down to a more music, FM-style approach.
Imus in the Morning, 66 WNBC New York | July, 1988

Dan Taylor on the Time Machine, 66 WNBC New York | 1988

This includes just about every element that listeners loved about the Time Machine. The great music of the 60s, a GREAT jock (actually, THE jock who invented the Time Machine format), lots of interaction with listeners – phone bits are everywhere, and Big Jay’s “Record Pig” segment.

Gary Bridges, 66 WNBC (Stereo) New York | November, 1985
Gary Bridges was one of a large staff of known personalities, some of whom listeners had grown up with. Personalities such as Don Pardo (the voice of many of WNBC radio and television’s promotions), Soupy Sales, who had been around in the 1950s and on television, Imus, who by this time was already an institution…
EJ (Joe) Crummey Produces and Co-Hosts the Wolfman Jack Show, 66 WNBC New York | February, 1986, Part 3
This is another in our series of AM-Stereo airchecks. WNBC used the Khan-Hazeltine AM Stereo system and while the transmitting plant itself was finely tuned and well-processed by NBC’s top-notch engineers, heard on a (then) modern, wideband AM Stereo receiver, this sounds BETTER than modern processed FM stations!
