Aircheck of the Format Flip - WQXR 96.3 Becomes WCAA "La Kalle 96.3"

I have the 105.9 handoff...but it's on cassette, and I'm unlikely to get a chance to digitize it this week, beyond pulling out the legal ID for TopHour.com tomorrow. Stay tuned...
 
A short version of the handoff is now up on TopHour.com. There really wasn't much more to it - the loop that was going for a couple of hours ended, and WQXR/WNYC's programming launched...

The entire concert is available at http://www.wqxr.org/articles/about-wqxr/. It starts with concert, not with the introduction to the new WQXR. An aircheck is still needed for the end of WCAA's 96.3 announcements with the beginning of WQXR at 105.9 simulcast over WNYC-FM. There was an early 1940's aircheck of WQXR played toward the end of 96.3. A longer version was played in the beginning of 105.9.

Thanks a lot! I have the aircheck of the special show recorded right off of the cable box from Time Warner Cable, but I'm not going to post it here. Sorry!

Disney, Have you never heard of copywrite infringement? An aircheck showing a few minutes of what a station is doing ,or as in this case a few minutes on either side of a flip is one thing. But posting an entire program , and calling it anaircheck is defiantly illegal.

Not really! It is just for historical purposes. An aircheck is something that you recorded off the radio.
 
And speaking of that, as of October 15th, that was about a week and a half ago, WCAA has flipped once again to become the new "X96.3" along with a new set of call letters, WXNY. I found this aircheck on YouTube and here is another aircheck of the format flip from WCAA's "La Kalle" to WXNY's "X96.3".

Here is the MP3 version of the same format flip as it was before.

You mght hear some "Star Wars" references during the relaunch, I love the "Star Wars" films, but it is great to hear those clips during the relaunch of the new "X96.3".
