Now that we have the benefit of yousendit.com as well as some of our own online storage, isn't it high time we posted as many of the classic airchecks, humorous drop-ins, and any other tidbits that our favorite stations used to use? I have almost none and am itching to get my hands on some. Who's got 'em. Who will share 'em? Thanks in advance!

Here's a staple from KROQ:

[/quote]Great topic. I have been looking for WLIR airchecks for a long time. Some guy named radiopaul9 apparently has tons of airchecks, but he does not seem to respond to email requests.[:(]

spiritofradio.ca has over a gig of CFNY airchecks. I had a KROQ one on my hard drive somewhere. It even mentioned in the aircheck a Josie Cotton show happening. Wish I had a time machine.
