Just back in from the movies to hear "LA Woman" by The Doors at 0437, then rambling talk by the DJ with the two IDs.
Taking requests via QSOs with other operators. SIO: 333
U2's "A Celebration" at 0506... signal holding up well.

I think in the 1980's either WKND (Weekend Radio) or WENJ had a call in phone number for on-air requests though my memory is not sure which station :D

The famous early '80's Canadian Pirate TNFM actually gave their HOME phone number for requests. I chatted with them for quite a while and have a cassette recording of the broadcast, where they gave a shout out to me. Of course this was in the pre-Bunneh days when pirates didn't have to worry too much about that sort of thing.
