WBEB July 14, 2015
Sorry this is several days late. My mind has been kind of all over the place lately. As promised, this is the last WBEB aircheck I have. This was before the station started streaming, but I had access to a Global Tuners radio. This ended up being a lot longer than I expected, as I…

WBEB February 18, 2015
Today, we continue with the WBEB airchecks. After Christmas 2013, the station rebranded as 101.1 More FM while remaining largely unchanged otherwise. This is the first aircheck of the station I recorded on my own, the others have been received in trades. I’m still hoping to get unscoped versions of the others I downloaded from…

WBEB June 125, 2013
As I said last week, WBEB was often the top-rated station in Philadelphia for much of the 2000s and early 2010s. Even today, it’s still consistently top 5. Until September 2018, the station was independently owned, and did not stream until mid-2017. Because of those two factors, I wanted every aircheck of the station I…

WBEB October 6, 2002
Today, we cross the country from Los Angeles to visit Philadelphia, which is home to well-known AC station WBEB. That station has been AC of some form for many years, but its owner famously refused to stream the station in later years. At one point, it was likely the largest market FM without a stream,…

WJBR September 25, 2015
Today, we cross the country to hear Wilmington’s WJBR, the heritage AC station in that market. That station is also heard in much of the Philadelphia market, where the remote receiver this aircheck was recorded from is located.I was hoping to get an updated clip of this station when I started this site, but the…

WTDY January 21, 2025
We conclude our listen to Philadelphia’s WTDY under its current New 96.5 identity. The station shifted back to Hot AC last fall after being CHR for a few years following the acquisition of WBEB. I’m not exactly sure when the shift happened, sometime after the last clip was recorded. Next week, we cross the country…

WTDY July 30, 2018
As I said last week, we’re taking a listen to the next in a series of brands on 96.5 in Philadelphia. Last week, it was the new AC approach as Today’s 96.5, this week it’s Hot AC trying to be CHR 96.5 TDY. The station would apparently morph back into full on CHR, though I…

WTDY January 27, 2017
As I said last week, the clip posted last week was recorded near the end of the Amp format on 96.5 Philadelphia. What was unknown to anyone at the time was that in early January 2017, the station would flip to AC as Today’s 96.5 WTDY. This clip was recorded a couple of weeks after…

WZMP November 23, 2016
As promised last week, we’re hearing the 96.5 frequency in Philadelphia this week under its CHR Amp Radio format. What was unknown to me and pretty much everyone at the time is that about six weeks later, the station would go AC as Today’s 96.5, which we will hear next week.

WRDW March 31, 2015
While we’ve listened to many stations already on this site recorded with the Global Tuners recorder, this is the first one that I actually was able to record using that method. Before then, I had to use Stereo Mix on my computer to record what GT was playing. This aircheck is Philadelphia’s 96.5 WRDW, in…
