KUPY

I pulled this sticker randomly from the collection and realized I have no information about it in my records. A quick Google search shows that it may be from Puyallup, Washington but I don't have time to confirm it yet.

UPDATE:  See comments.  Thanks Dan!

WNOE

WNOE (named after its original owner, former Louisiana governor James A Noe) was New Orlean's first Top 40 station, lasting from the 50s through the late 60s. For a few years they went MOR and Oldies but found success with "Real Rock" in 1973 while simulcasting with their sister station WNOE-FM. 1981 brought a Country format which remained until 1995 when they were sold, found Religion, and changed calls to WLNO.

Places I've Lived #1 - Milton, Florida

My dad was a Navy pilot stationed in Pensacola although I think he may have already left the service by the time I was born in nearby Milton in 1970.  I have no memory of the place as we moved away when I was about a year old.

WXBM has been a Country music station since they went on the air in 1964. It is licensed to Milton, Florida.

KLSX

CBS Radio has decided to blow up 97.1 FM Talk in favor of Top 40 "AMP Radio" starting tomorrow at 5 PM. I'll miss listening to the Adam Carolla Show podcast and hope he reappears at another station soon. Carolla had the unenviable task of taking over for Howard Stern in Los Angeles after he bolted for Sirius Satellite Radio. The above stickers are from when the station was using the "Free FM" branding. In 2007 the station added the dreadful Danny Bonaduce to the morning show which stunk it up for an entire year. In protest, Carolla was a no-show on his own program until Bonaduce was moved to another timeslot. KLSX (KLaSiX-in reference to an earlier Classic Rock format) is licensed to Los Angeles, California.

Pitchers and Catchers Report

Another season of futility begins for my Baltimore Orioles. It's tough when you're in the same division as the Yankees and Red Sox and you haven't made the post-season since 1997. Eleven consecutive losing seasons doesn't make you optimistic but maybe we'll be the Rays of last season....yeah right.

WTOP (the TOP of the AM dial) was a News station licensed to Washington, DC. The WTOP calls still exist in DC at 103.5 FM while 1500 AM is now WFED.

Radio Melodie

Radio Melodie is a pop music station located in Sarreguemines, France. They broadcast in French and German as they're located on the border of both countries. Sarreguemines was transferred to Germany after the Franco-Prussian War but returned to France after World War I.

I listened to their variety of lightweight Euro-pop online until they played "Celebration" by Kool & the Gang. It's nice to know that this horrible, overplayed song knows no borders.
