***NOTE: WABC-FM turned into WPLJ-FM 95.5 & was a leading R&R station... WABC-AM 770 has been a talk radio station for well over 25 years so Top 40's are really old recordings
I just pulled out my old AMBC logbook... WABC-AM went talk in mid-1982 [with the Father of Talk, Bob Grant RIP]...
The Day the Music Died 5/10/1982 https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=toms8m8EP8Q
Harry Harrison, Ron Lundy & Cousin Brucie were great DJs during the later years of Top 40 at WABC... Many wrapped up their careers at other FM stations
I still remember their "Put It in a Window" campaign to get people to do it & improve their reception

S9 and good audio. Occasional quick fades but sounding very good.
Seems to be playing an old show from WABC circa 1977 or so (or maybe mid-90's from some of the ads).
HSmith, I agree - back when AM was fun to listen to...
Still [!] there - S9 at 0239 with "I Still Miss Someone" by Johnny Cash
Marathon broadcast, still S7 @ 0343 with "Jailhouse Rock".
0405 - Looney tunes 'That's All Folks' then "Happy Trails" and off @ 0406.

Thanks for the great show - nicely done!.

Music heard here, very strong and awesome in AM...I definitely heard a shot of my baby's love from 1966.OM talking. Thanks for the great AM broadcast

[JoeFLIPS]

0110- music S4-5
0137- just a weak carrier now

[Kilokat7]

S8 nice signal and nice audio with oldies, Bud Light parody ad, old WABC jingles.  Nice show, thanks!

EDIT: Slid up to 6955 at 0117z.

"AM 1610" reference at 0130z?  Also heard references to XM radio in the programming, Neely Henry Lake, mentions of Ashville, AL., time checks that are two minutes off from the current time.  Interesting show and likely not just some old WABC Top 40 show being replayed.

Excellent signal pushing +10 with clear audio. Nice songs and well put together show. Great work and thanks for the show.

Show jumped to 6.955 at 0115 utc.

WABC? S7 in NY now.

[William Hassig]

Tuned in at 0121utc, fair/poor sig, hear "dancing", WABC NY jingle, Chickenman ad, rockabilly tune: "brown eyed handsome man", Chickenman episode, song "sea cruise", R2000 & dipole.

Fun show from when AM radio was fun to listen to .

 A few minutes ago I was hearing a great signal here and then I came back and it was gone was enjoying the music! A excellent signal here in Western South Carolina! Good to hear WABC tonight with some good music at 01:30UTC  with plenty of IDs and Chicken Man! Signal over a plus 10 here. This has been very entertaining to listen to this program tonight some great music and good dee jay work! Signal has been excellent tonight too! Well there is a town called Asheville Alabama but WABC has been a radio station for over 80 years in New York City! So someone has spent some time producing this program tonight maybe on a Reel to Reel tape recorder, I use to do something like this when I was really young! This took some time!! Great show with commercials too. Fun Radio! Nice job tonight! Signal tonight stay strong all evening unbelievable I have not heard a program that could continue to propagate so well in the evening! One heck of a show!

[ByteBORG]

Thought I heard an ID for WABC. May be a recording or a relay.

0125 - Ad for The Chicken Man
0126 - Brown Eyed Gambling Man
0129 - Spoof AD for Psychiatric Help Hotline
0150 - Sea Cruise

Thanks for the Relay.
