NEW! WKNR FM-WNIC FM BACK ON THE RADIO: JIM CUTLER, APRIL 24, 1972

Jim writes (January 9, 2024) — “On the date noted on this aircheck, WKNR FM transitioned to WNIC-FM. I did simultaneously had recorded as well, the WKNR-AM to WNIC-AM at the approximate time when the transition took place. But, unfortunately, it was ruined by someone at the studio who threw the wrong switch. That action resulted in several seconds of dead air. After noticing the on-air ‘pause’ in the recording occurred, I did not keep that particular ‘WKNR to WNIC AM’ tape.” –Jim Neznoff
