KFAT
The Wikipedia entry for what is now KLOO in Corvallis, Oregon says that 106.1 FM KFAT was on the air from 1983 to 1997. But was this Oregon KFAT related at all to the original, legendary 94.5 KFAT from Gilroy, California? The years seem to line up since the one in Gilroy flipped to CHR as KWSS in '83, the same year the one in Oregon went on the air. Both were Country stations but not just any Country--free form progressive country mixed with Blues, Bluegrass, Rock and what would now be called Americana. If anyone has any more info about the possible connection between these two fatties, leave a comment.

WVBR
Radio on the campus of Cornell University in Ithaca, New York goes back to the 1930s when the Cornell Radio Guild was formed. They produced programs for WESG (now WHCU) and later started a low-power, carrier-current AM station WVBR. The (W) Voice of the Big Red secured a license on the emerging FM band and began broadcasts on 93.5 starting in 1958. They mostly played Classical music at first but switched to Rock in 1968. Except for a detour into CHR in the 1980s, this continued for decades before a distinct shift to Alternative Rock took place around 2018. WVBR is unique in that they are a commercial station owned, operated (with some community help) and managed by Cornell students via the Cornell Media Guild and separate from the university.

The volunteer and student-run station airs non-mainstream music along with live sports and local news. They are currently branded as "90.7 The Orbit" in homage to John Glenn's 1962 orbit around the earth. Glenn was born in nearby Cambridge, Ohio and graduated from Muskingum in 1943.
WHYN AM & FM
1400 AM WHYN signed on the air in April 1941 with a signal that primarily covered (W) HolYoke and Northampton, Massachusetts. They moved to 560 AM in 1949 and added an FM sister station in 1947. Today both stations are licensed to Springfield, MA with WHYN AM a News/Talk outlet while the FM is Hot Adult Contemporary "Mix 93.1" The basketball net sticker surely has something to do with the game being invented in Springfield in 1891....perhaps it was a 100th anniversary decal.
