Retro Radio - Classic radio air checks from the 70s and 80s

Rewind your calendar by listening to Mike Weber on the radio between 1969 & 1986. It provides a memory reviving snapshot of the times. Most of these airchecks are "scoped", meaning that when the microphone was off, the tape stopped recording. (Copyrighted material appears under the "Fair Use" doctrine.) Career growth for announcers at that time meant that you started at small market stations and progressed to larger ones as your talent developed. So these recordings include music and talk formats from: WMOA, KNEZ, WOXR, KCRG, WLW, WKRC, WLCY, WNSI, WQYK, WFLA-AM, WFLA-FM, and finally WPDS.

February 3, 1980 WLW - Cincinnati

It's February 3, 1980, a Sunday afternoon in Cincinnati. The weather is cold, gas prices are climbing, the Iran hostage crisis is underway, President Carter has submitted his new budget, in sports there's basketball. Here's an aircheck of part of that 6 hour show that day. Yes, an actual live person on the air that long with no satellite feed. Even so, I was the only person there, doing it all, and in complete control of a 50,000 watt radio station. It still amazes me that they trusted me that much.
