A 1984 promotional card and sticker from "HitRadio 103 FM" WHTT in Boston, Massachusetts.  This Top-40 outlet didn't last long--March, 1983 to July, 1986--but they did manage to top the ratings shortly after they went on the air.  An audio clip of their format change to Rock as "Q103" WMRQ can be heard below.  103.3 FM is now once again Top-40 as "Amp Radio" WODS.

WPLJ

Last night my wife and I went to the Fraze Pavilion to watch the Led Zeppelin cover band Get The Led Out.  After getting up at 3:30 AM that morning and working 13 hours, I wouldn't have been too bummed out if the earlier downpours had continued and we decided to skip this outdoor show.  Thankfully, the weather cleared and we got to experience a fantastic concert.  GTLO are a dead-on sounding Zeppelin tribute band.  They don't set out to look like the band (the singer admitted to looking like Howard Stern...although one guitarist looked an awful lot like Robert Plant) but rather concentrate on re-creating the sound of Zeppelin's studio albums.  They even pulled out a theremin and what I think was a bit of turntablism to produce the mid-song freakout from Whole Lotta Love.  Great show all around.

Mystery Listener Card

I found this listener card misfiled under KTXQ when I was pulling stickers for yesterday's post.  Clearly, they share the same design but are one dial position off.  Anyone know where this "Q101" card is from?  The best known station with that branding is probably WKQX in Chicago but it's unknown if they ever had this logo.

KTXQ

"Q102" KTXQ was a Rock station in Dallas, Texas from 1978 until 1998.  They were the main competitor of KZEW--the hatred between the two stations beginning after "Q102" beat "The Zoo" in the ratings after just two months on the air.  Eventually the stations shared more than just similar playlists as various jocks and bosses ended up working at both outlets.  By 1994 "Q102" had morphed into an Alternative Rock station.

In 1998 KTXQ flipped to R&B Oldies as "Magic 102".
102.1 FM is currently Alternative Rock KDGE "The Edge".
