KKUA/KQMQ

AM 690 KKUA and "93Q FM" KQMQ were co-owned stations in Honolulu, Hawaii.  It's unclear exactly when this sticker was from (I'm guessing 1982/83) but at one point the stations were simulcast.  Prior to this, KKUA was a Top-40 station while KQMQ was Rock.  AM 690 is currently News/Talk KHNR while KQMQ carries a Reggae/Hawaiian as "93.1 Da Pā'ina."

Radio ABC

I had this Radio ABC sticker filed under "Norway" but I can't seem to find any further information about this station. Anybody know anything?

CIXL

After getting married yesterday evening, my wife Debbie and I drove to Niagara Falls for a short honeymoon.  The Falls (and Debbie) were beautiful as always and it was fun hitting the casino and getting soaked on the Maid of the Mist. 
As we drove into western New York, I started scanning the radio dial and it stopped at 91.7 FM which was playing "Tom Sawyer" by Rush.  I thought it was odd that a station on that frequency was playing this before I remembered that Canada doesn't have to follow any 88.1 to 91.7 FM non-commercial band rules.

The station was CIXL "91.7 Giant FM," a Classic Rock station licensed to Welland, Ontario.  It became my station of choice for our time in Niagara Falls and I especially liked hearing Canadian acts like Trooper, Colin James, Toronto, Streetheart and Bruce Cockburn which are unknown where I live.

KBOS

KBOS is a Rhythmic Contemporary station in Fresno, California and licensed to Tulare, CA.  They've carried some form of CHR/Top-40 since the early 1970s.

National Coming Out Day - CIRR

October 11th is National Coming Out Day, a civil awareness day celebrated by gays, lesbians, bisexuals and transgendered people in the United States and at least six other countries.  This date coincides with the National March on Washington for Lesbian and Gay Rights which took place in 1987.

CIRR "103.9 Proud FM" is a station targeting the queer (their word, not mine) population in Toronto, Ontario.  They carry a CHR/Hot AC format and are the first commercial, terrestrial, LGBT-oriented station in the world.

WQRX

I was listening to the always-entertaining Rock And Roll Geek Show podcast recently and heard a song from Foxy Shazam called "Holy Touch."  This catchy tune has been stuck in my head for about a week now and it won't go away.  Damn you Michael Butler!



At the very end of the video, a DJ from the fictional station WQRX comes on and attempts to back announce the song over multiple false endings, getting cut-off in the process.  The much better official video deletes this brief bit of radio, unfortunately.

The real WQRX is a Spanish Christian station licensed to Valley Head, Alabama.  The top sticker probably dates to 1986 when they went on the air with an Oldies format.  The bottom sticker is from 1992 when the Broadcasting Yearbook lists them as having a "Greatest Hits" format (despite the logo from Country band Alabama.)  The decal is also autographed by station president Jeff Cook for some reason.

Radio Mitre

Radio Mitre is a News/Talk station broadcasting at 790 AM from Buenos Aires, Argentina.

KHFI

"K98" KHFI was a Top-40 station in Austin, Texas.  They are now located at 96.7 FM and known as "Kiss FM."

WRKZ

WRKZ "K-Rock" was an Active Rock station in Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania from 2004 to 2007.  93.7 FM is currently KDKA-FM "The Fan" and has a Sports format.

WQXR? No! WLYQ

"Q96 FM" is a bit of a mystery.  I thought it was from WQXR in New York City but now I'm not so sure.

The back of the sticker (click it bigger) dates it to 1981 when the Broadcasting Yearbook says WQXR-FM duplicated the Classical programming of WQXR-AM 100%.  The same listing appears in the 1980 and 1983 Yearbook as well.  This sticker certainly doesn't look like it's from a Classical station and has the look of a typical Top-40 outlet of the time.  The backing also mentions the Coca-Cola Bottling Company of New York which at least locates the station geographically somewhat.  Anybody know what station this sticker is from?

UPDATE:  According to a helpful commenter, "Q96" was WLYQ in Norwalk, Connecticut.  Thanks for the info!  Doubly confirmed by doing a Google Image search for WLYQ and finding this mike flag with the same logo.

EDIT:  Seven years after I originally posted this, I received this "Q96" sticker with a Stroh's logo.  The back of the decal mentions Fairfield County for further proof that it's from WLYQ in Norwalk, CT.

A couple more I acquired since the edit.
