Members MissLlanviewPA Posted April 24, 2012 Members Share Posted April 24, 2012 Because I have delightfully nerdy hobbies (and one of my lifelong dreams is to work at a TV/radio station): There's this great YouTube channel, TheRobz, which has all these different radio jingles and IDs that I love. I particularly love all the 1986-1987 ones, both for the great music they introduce and the wide range of US cities/metro areas they cover. There are eleven ones for the 1986-1987 jingles/IDs in all. Here are the first four: Huntington, Charleston, Roanoke, Richmond, Norfolk, Washington D.C.: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=CL1ZWmPl6-U&feature=channel_video_title Salt Lake City, Idaho Falls, Great Falls, Bozeman, Billings, Rapid City, Casper, Cheyenne, Denver, Colorado Springs and Albuquerque and some other distant locations: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jFePOvaijzI&feature=channel_video_title Tallahassee, Tampa, Miami, Jacksonville, Savannah, Atlanta, Charleston, Columbia and Charlotte: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-Bn2ad1xfus&feature=channel_video_title Terre Haute, Indianapolis, Lansing, Detroit, Toledo, Cleveland, Columbus and Cincinnati: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=K1d40Ugpeb0&feature=channel_video_title I'll post the other seven as the board allows me to. There are also eight of these from 1989 that I really want to listen to, since I was born that year. More to come! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members Ryan Chamberlain Posted April 24, 2012 Members Share Posted April 24, 2012 I might be able to find a clip of the local sportcaster online who I used to be afraid of. His name is Alan Cutler. And, when I was a child. He was so scary looking to me. That I used to hide in a closet when I saw him on the screen. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members MissLlanviewPA Posted April 24, 2012 Author Members Share Posted April 24, 2012 Oh no! That's awful! Speaking of which, here's a clip of the best known Indy news anchors back when I was still in town: Mike Ahern & Debby Knox. I still have an old tape with this promo. And when I still had stations from Baltimore: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members MissLlanviewPA Posted April 24, 2012 Author Members Share Posted April 24, 2012 Aw, thank you! She was great, wasn't she? I actually haven't seen very much from her glory days! I've got to catch up! This is one of my favorites: A CBS affiliate montage from 1995. Funny to see how many are missing, and how many have since changed networks: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=hsHotDoReIo http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=pEVlUicpfoE&feature=relmfu Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Scotty Posted April 24, 2012 Members Share Posted April 24, 2012 These are some 1989 promos from WLKY-32 in Louisville, KY when Meteorologist Wayne Hart joined the station. A few years later he would move to WEHT-25 in Evansville, IN, where he remains today as that station's chief meteorologist. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
