Above WRCN 1979

A special thanks to WRCN Music Director Bob Goodman for sending in this
super photo of him in front of the WRCN/WRHF broadcast studios which,
at the time, were located in the back of the Flanders (Riverhead) Drive In.

Great LI Radio site, brings back vivid memories. I was fortunate to be a part of that landscape from 1972 - 75 with WHRF/WRCN and yes we could watch the movies from our parking lot. I was the Music Director during that time and the station was owned by East Shore Broadcasting (Richard Adrian). I started doing 6 - Midnight and then settled in at Mid Days during 74 / 75. Our format transitioned from MOR to Top 40 AC during the Summer of '74 and I instituted a musical play list that featured oldies (flashbacks) every 15 minutes on the format clock. We also tried to create a presence with our local news and lots of remotes ala LNG.

I also worked for WLIX 540 during 1975 / 76 when we were in a trailer across from Islip Speedway. I did Mid Days. Also worked at WYSP-FM Phila, KSURF, Los Angeles. I've always been a Radio Junkie, that's how I found your site. If you would like more info, I have many great memories to share. By the way, I'm currently doing a weekend show on a College FM Station here in Southern California, pro bono. We stream on the internet at the following link: http://www.ksbr.net/Jazz!FM885KSBR.ram?
