Hello all! as you may know I am a lifelong Rhode Island resident now living in Houston, and I was thinking the other day, isn't Pro-fm's 35th birthday coming up any day now? I recall back in 1992-93 I received those friday morning quarterback cd airchecks while working in radio and one of them had Pro-fm featured, and the beginning of their segment it had a promo announcing the change and it went like this:
"WPRO fm will be changing it's programming matter starting midnight Monday, April 29, from its present format to stereo rock"
now I have never been able to hunt down an actual aircheck of the change, but if this is the date, April 29, 1974, then this week makes it 35 years! I wonder if they will celebrate it at all?
35 years as a CHR is pretty unheard of these days, kudos to 92 Pro Fm!
