Interesting...
We are listening to some of WINN's final days before they switched to "Music of Your Life".
For some reason, I had thought that the format change happened in 1980. Guess I was wrong.
I don't believe that Wretched Richard stayed around too long after the format change and bolted for WAMZ.
I do know that WINN switched back to country in the summer of 1982 (maybe July). By early 1984, the country format was dumped and the station was sold. The call letters were changed to WLLV and have remained the same to this day.
One more question: Is the "Mason Dixon" mentioned in the airchecks the same person as "Mason Lee Dixon" of WAKY fame?
