Re: WKND
Yes my grandparents LOVED 100.5 .. They were very good also for many years..... When they changed they had nothing to listen to and my grandfather had passed away years later and my grandmother was alone for the rest of her life.....
I remember when she fell down and she just got worse from that point.. I made her an 8hr VHS tape of Music Choices "Easy Listening" and she listenend to it when stuck in bed....
She passed away in bed listening to it..
God rest both of them,i do miss them both  |

| I think that was WRCH or WHUD. My fav, WRFM, was at 105 on the dial.
Another interesting station came on the air around 1981 in the Hudson Valley was WRVH at 105.5 on the dial. They played beautiful music during the day/weekdays, but on Sunday nights, they had an audiophile's program called "Adventures in Sound" with Anthony Fast as host. They played master tapes and direct to disc LPs and of course, Ed Valentine, the station founder and owner, had personally rebuilt much of the studio electronics and the station sounded noticeably sweeter than anything else on the air at the time. I did some remote concert recordings with him back then and saw their studio (very unusual acoustic design) and automation system and was very impressed with it. They put a lot of money into that station. It was a shame to see it sold in 1986 and the format changed to rock. Cumulus now owns them. |
