Ugh, I can't get it - I don't think. :-( I get 880 but not 890.

I listened to WLS around 1960, then after I moved to California they
became not only a non-clear channel broadcaster but changed their venue
from new rock and roll to an adults themed boredom station. PFFFTTT.

I used to get their top of the chart "Silver Dollar Surveys" from about
1958 to 1962, which of course got lost in the move to Crapofornia.


I was a youngster in the 60's,when we visited my cousins in Dowagiac Mi.
they always had WLS playing.
I'm in the panhandle of Fl. now, I can get it a night, but a good signal
only in the winter.

I have only got WBZ for about 30 second during the last 15 years.
That was my favorite middle of the night station, any body remember the
name of the host that was on at about 2 am back then?


Was it Larry Glick, or was it someone else at that time.

I will say that WBZ comes in not too well anymore for some reason, not
like it
did back in the 80's.

Yes, It was Larry.
I remember him making calls to pay phones, he turned those into a lot of
fun.
