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.
95.9 WLYQ Norwalk, CT which is now WFOX.
ReplyDeleteAh, yes! Q96! I remember it well! Here's a shot of my home-made "boom box" with one of their bumper stickers on it! ;)
