  • Is there a recording equivalent of hot off the press?

    This is about as fresh as you can get. Okay technically this aircheck is late as it’s already Saturday, but it’s been one of those days where I meant to do a number of things and other things just kept coming up. That’s also why this aircheck is significantly longer than planned. Someone called me…

    Sorry this is so late. I’ve gotten out of the habit of scoping my airchecks as I record them, so I just scoped this one before putting it up. I’m not entirely sure where Maui ended up, but I think there were at least a couple of afternoon hosts between him and current afternoon host…

  • KKRZ April 17, 2015

    This is the last aircheck of KKRZ from when I was here for school in 2014-15. It also represents the last of my old philosophy when it came to this station, and the last recording using the equipment you hear in this aircheck, though you’ve heard this before and you’ll hear it again if you…

    Sorry this is a day late. Right now, I feel like I have a million things on my plate, though I’m holding it together pretty well actually. Today, we’re continuing our listen to KKRZ from Portland, as heard this time on the evening of February 17, 2015. There’s one more aircheck in this series, then…

    I actually wasn’t going to keep this aircheck initially, but I cut it down slightly and ended up keeping it. I recorded this one Saturday while out doing grocery shopping. I wanted this to be the longest aircheck of the station recorded from that equipment, but that didn’t end up quite being the case.

    We’re continuing our listen to KKRZ today. This is the first aircheck you will hear from me actually being in the market, as this was recorded when I was going to school here during the 2014-15 school year. We have three more airchecks to go from this period, one from January 2015, one from February…

    I honestly didn’t intend for this aircheck to be so long, but I was waiting for the jock to say his name, which it became fairly clear he was not going to do. I later found out his name is Maui, but that wouldn’t happen in this clip. It’s one of the longer clips I…

  • KKRZ September 17, 2013

    First off, I need to apologize for seemingly being asleep on the job the last couple weeks. I’ve been distracted with some other stuff, so this site has been a low priority. Fortunately, I’m getting back into a normal routine. As we have been over the last few weeks, we’re continuing our listen to KKRZ.…

    This week, it’s more Z100, with the same jock as last week. I was a bit time constrained with last week’s aircheck, but not this one as this is a full hour.

  • KKRZ August 8, 2013

    I feel like there’s at least one station that really sounds good scoped in every market, or at least there used to be. Although Z100 Portland is a bit on the automated side, I feel like it fits that profile. That’s one of the reasons this clip exists, in addition to attempting to bring the…
