  • KJR August 14, 2014

    I actually did record the format change of 95.7 from KJR with the end of the Bob Rivers show and launch of the Jet, but a longer version of that is available, so I will not be posting that here. Instead, you’ll get an aircheck from a few days later, after I had returned from…

  • KJR July 23, 2003

    For the last two weeks, we’ve been listening to KJR-FM as heard in October 2002. That was supposed to be one aircheck, but when I received it, I found that it was actually two airchecks that had been combined into one file. So, I asked for this one in a subsequent trade in hopes of…

  • KJR October 31, 2002

    As promised last week, here’s the KJR as heard the next day from what was posted last week. I wasn’t even planning on receiving this, but when I got the aircheck that I posted last week, what was listed as a 79 minute aircheck of the station from October 30, 2002 was actually a 42…

  • KJR October 30, 2002

    This is the aircheck I’ve been promising for the last couple of weeks. First off, a bit of history on this frequency. When New Century Media acquired the 95.7 frequency in 1994, they flipped the station to all 70s, later evolving into a standard Classic Hits, as 95.7 KJR-FM. In 2000, that format was dropped…

  • The last normal WPLJ aircheck to exist

    No, there’s no updated WKQI aircheck this week, as I was kind of busy and forgot to record it, and the KJR aircheck I teased last week is actually coming next week because I forgot I had to post this one. It’s so late because I forgot to scope it ahead of time. This aircheck…

  • WKQI July 14, 2016

    I can’t remember why I recorded this clip of Detroit’s Channel 95.5 WKQI, but I punched up the Detroit receiver on Global Tuners and decided to record it one Thursday afternoon. At the time, I was trying to get as many airchecks of heritage stations as possible. WKQI adopted its current brand in 1997, but…

  • KBFF June 4, 2024

    I generally don’t record for longer than about 90 minutes, but I’m trying to equal lengths of airchecks Mark has sent me in various trades. That’s why this aircheck and two others run 160 minutes unscoped. This is the first of those, recorded on June 4, 2024. This is the same shift heard last week,…

  • The station that got industry attention for using AI

    Yes, that’s the station we’ve been listening to for the last several weeks, KBFF. This is the station that gained significant attention in June 2023 when it became the first station to use an AI DJ. Unfortunately, I didn’t get an aircheck of those initial days, but I did get one in February 2024, which…

  • KBFF June 13, 2015

    As I said we would last week, here’s an aircheck of KBFF, Live 95.5, from June 13, 2015. I cannot remember now why I recorded this, possibly because I wanted a fully hosted Aircheck, unlike the last one I posted which was only hosted for the last few minutes. Also, this aircheck features a different…

  • KBFF October 24, 2014

    We’re continuing our listen to Live 95.5 KBFF this week, with an aircheck from October 24, 2014. At this time, I was going to school in this market, so actually had a radio physically with me. I decided to record this after noticing that the station had changed its imaging voice. Next week, we’ll hear…
