Canadian Top 40! A Sample of 680 CFTR Toronto in 1978, Part 1
Imagine my surprise when a box of cassettes showed up at my door sometime after (American) Thanksgiving, 2023 from Nancy Plum (KTNQ, Passport Radio). Nancy had promised these several years ago and REMEMBERED! Thanks, Nancy! There’s one complete broadcast day on this double-sided cassette, side two of this somewhat grainy recording will post a little bit later. The highlight of this HAS to be Dan…

Nancy Plum, KTNQ (1020) "Ten Q" Los Angeles | January 27, 1979
Photo courtesy of Nancy Plum A box of tapes arrived in the mail in January. I was a bit surprised, but then remembered that Nancy Plum had promised to send some airchecks a little over a year ago. Here’s the first of dozens of donated airchecks. It’s Nancy Plum herself on Ten-Q from what I feel was one of the best time periods for Top 40 radio. Interestingly enough, that same day I was…

[cpm-player id=”26″] From the latest box of cassettes from contributor Nancy Plum is this excellent quality double-sided recording of 93.1 KKHR Los Angeles. This aircheck is from the end of the Top 40 format and there are changes heard on this tape to the format which could have lead some to suspect the station was going to change. First, from its launch on August 25, 1983, the station was…

Nancy Plum, KFI AM 640 Los Angeles | March 23, 1987
[cpm-player id=”25″] Every aircheck tells a story. What listeners remember years later isn’t always what the station sounded like at the time they remember. For me, the most memorable time at KFI was the “Amazin’ AM” Top 40 era, which basically ran from 1978-1984, part of those years in Stereo. But THIS version of KFI? Airchecks of it are pretty rare. This is from the Full-Service, Soft Adult…

Nancy Plum, 1020 KTNQ Ten-Q Los Angeles | January 2, 1977
Another gem from the latest contribution from Nancy Plum is this super hi-fi (not HD) skimmer-scope of her filling in for Joe Nasty on Ten-Q Los Angeles. One of the really nice things about being friends with those who were there is correcting inaccurate web information. For instance, Willie B, another Ten-Q jock, told me that KGBS became KTNQ on December 26, 1976, and that would make the station…

Nancy Plum Overnights on 1020 KTNQ Ten-Q Los Angeles | April 4-5, 1978, Part 1
DESCRIPTION
Amazon book author and L.A. radio personality Nancy Plum is featured on this cleaned up skimmer tape from the overnight of April 4 and 5, 1978. Once again, we all get to hear a glimpse of what KTNQ sounded like in the last few weeks before the format moved to FM. In fact, this features promos running that describe Ten-Q as sounding more and more like FM, and a big announcement coming…
