102.7 WGLD MAY 1969 SOLID GOLD STEREO FORMAT

T

Hey Guys
Hope you are all doing well.
Need your help on this one.
On May 5 1969 WOPA FM became WGLD Oldies., Progressive AOR nights. Would anybody know if the oldies format was automated or live with jocks?
If it was automated. Was it in house or used a syndicated service?

Second. Would anybody remember what the times and days the Progressive AOR format aired? I see that Scorpio and Psyche AKA Gwen Johnson did shows on the station.

Thanks for you help guys.
Tommy C.
 
The Aug. 1, 1969 Chicago Sun-Times reported WGLD was "mainstream rock by day and underground and progressive rock by night." A Chicago Tribune listing from the same month had Scorpio running at 8 p.m., at least on Sundays. By September, Scorpio was running 9 p.m.-4 a.m., according to The Daily Norhtwestern.
