WAPE

I'm 99% sure that this Big Ape Bumper Sticker is from WAPE in Jacksonville, Florida.  Can anyone confirm this?  WAPE was a powerhouse Top-40 station with giant-sized signal coverage located at 690 AM from the 1950s to early 1980s.  Lots of pix and whatnot can be found at this Mighty 690 fan page on Facebook.

In 1986 the WAPE call letters were resurrected at 95.1 FM, once again residing over a CHR/Top-40 station in Jacksonville. 

Antena Directa

Antena Directa began broadcasting in 1983 from Cerdanyola del Vallès in the Catalonian region of Spain.  Information about the station is spotty but a few references can be found on this blog.  If this is the same station then it appears that they now broadcast at 105.3 FM.

Radio Sticker of the Day Mailbag - KORL

The post office box revealed another treasure recently from the unendingly generous Dan in Aldergrove, British Columbia.  Many, many thanks my friend!

An especially unique sticker was included from 97.1 KORL in Hawaii.  The main KORL station is located at 101.1 FM with a Hot Adult Contemporary format but they use HD Radio to feed three translators: K268BE at 101.5 FM plays Smooth Jazz, K298BA at 107.5 FM plays Korean Pop ("K-Pop") and K246BR at 97.1 FM airs Japanese Pop ("J-Pop.")

Radio Sticker of the Day Mailbag - Radio Centro

The mailman delivered this set of Italian radio stickers while I was away on vacation last week.  Thanks Gian Carlo!!

This odd microphone-headed snake sticker from Radio Centro was a highlight of the package.  Notice how the snake's body forms the frequency of the station.  Tunein.com lists Radio Centro as a Top-40/Pop station from Turin, Italy broadcasting at 92.1 FM while the station's official website (still under construction but you can listen live) shows them broadcasting at 97.0 FM playing "Soft FM" music.  Did they used to broadcast in the 95 FM range and moved but kept the number in their branding?

Here's a Radio Centro sticker with their current logo.

I recently received another package of stickers from Ricky in Indonesia.  Decals from Australia, Germany, France, England and other countries were included.  Thanks Ricky!!
