WKRP was a mythical station.

If you do searches by call letters or year or even disc jockey which you can do on the home page, you will find stuff.

I used to hear WCFL in Chicago a lot after dark in my part of Pennsylvania. There a quite a few CFL airchecks in the collection.

The stronger AM stations could carry very far at night, under the right weather conditions. Van Morrison said he was influenced by rock and roll music listening to WABC, WBZ(Boston) and other east coast stations in his native Ireland when their signals would carry across the pond at night. This phenomenon was a factor in influencing the “British invasion”.

Check out WRKO (Boston) airchecks from the 1970s. This was a powerhouse Top 40 station at the time and just an incredible time capsule from that decade. I grew up with WRKO.

In the early 1980s it became a talk radio power house and I cut my teeth on conservative talk radio from that era...Jerry Williams, Gene Burns, Rush Limbaugh, Howie Carr, among others.
