There have been a lot of format changes in the Philly radio market.

104.5 has changed formats so many times that I can’t keep up. It used to be Sunny 104.5 when I was a younger kid, then it was Star 104.5 (I listened to the nightly Between The Sheets program with Christopher Knight religiously as a teenager). Then it changed back to Sunny easy listening. Now it’s something else. I think an alternative rock station?

100.3 used to be KISS, playing basically elevator music, before it became Y100.

Similarly, 101.1 used to be Eazy 101. Now it’s B101, much more upbeat stuff.

105.3 has been Smooth Jazz/adult R&B for as long as I can recall. And 102.9 has been classic rock for as long as I remember too.

I remember the absolute confusion when CBS and NBC switched. 😂😂 I sometimes still have trouble remembering which is which now.

I agree!

I vaguely remember the day the switch happened. I was about 11 and turned on tbe car stereo and heard a Four Tops song and was like WTFF??? It felt like a cruel trick.

They actually did. They were contemporary top 40 until 1987 when they switched to oldies.

1985 when the station was WCAU Hot Hits.

Do you mean when did they switch from contemporary to oldies music?

I’m 45. WOGL used to be Hot Hits WCAU FM when I was a young child in the early 80s. It was my favorite station. I can still hear the jingle with their old call letters in my head!

My mom was an ER nurse at PCOM across the street from the station then and once took care of DJ Bill O’Brien. Back then they played current Top 40, not oldies.

I think the format change happened in 1985ish? Because then I remember switching to Eagle 106, and then Q102.

here is a link to the music 98.1 was playing in 1985. According to a comment in this link, the format changed from Top 40 to oldies in Nov 1987.

There’s a scrapplefest

Delco native here, moved to NW Montco in 2002. My family back in Delco still cannot believe how different things get once one passes over the Montco/Berks county line.

When I told/showed them how common Confederate flags and iconography are in areas just 15 minutes from my house, they’re horrified.

Coroner has arrived. I’ve heard some wild rumors that she was decapitated.

I’m hearing a body has been found at an abandoned warehouse in Royersford today…

There are coyotes everywhere, I live in Limerick and have seen them here with my own eyes. My husband hunts on the gameland in Linfield along the river and this week he came across a dead coyote on the riverbank. Looks like it fell down a ravine because it had a head injury.

Amen. The best ones are the ones who think that LE owe them a complete rundown and timeline of every single detail. Gtfo.

The Facebook group that someone in my town created to “help” with this investigation is unbearable to read. All the hausfrau are coming out of the woodwork to play pretend detective.

I usually just look at Ticketmaster’s app.

Phoenixville, Collegeville, Pottstown, Exeter, Boyertown.

Hennings Market FTW

I freaking hate Giant.
