Anyone have a break down of years and places of employment?

A few friends were discussing this and i was curious as well
 
Feel free to fill in any gaps! Here's what I got, based on occasional listening. Which stint was shorter, the one at WXXM or that at WLDW? I dunno!

98.1 WCAU (late 1980s)
100.3 WPLY (early-mid 1990s)
95.7 WXXM (2000)
93-3 WMMR (2000-01)
96.5 WPTP (2003)
96.5 WLDW (2003)
94.1 WYSP (2005-)
 
Was he on Eagle 106 too?

Barsky started at WCAU in late '82 or early '83. For the year prior to that, beginning in early '82, he was under contract to ABC for the aborted SuperRadio CHR satellite format that was supposed to feature him and several of the ex-WABC jocks. Prior to that, beginning in the late 70s through early '82, he was the night jock at two different CHR stations in Rochester, New York. (I have an aircheck of him somewhere doing a classic talkup of "Do the Hustle'" artfully setting up every "do it" in the intro. As for the gap between CAU and PLY, isn't that when he was doing AM drive in Chicago?

I copied/pasted this from my earlier post on "Where are they now?"

Eliana Kelly
Does anyone recall her? She was a really attractive brunette, was on Barsky's morning show on 93.3 WMMR in Philly around 1998 or so. I believe she did traffic/weather? All I remember was how Barsky walked off the air one morning, in protest of WMMR playing Rage Against The Machine because they supported Mumia. She was left holding the mike... Anyone know what her name was and what became of her?

Here's a link to a pic of her:

oops Wrong Mix, Max!

Okay, WXXM was circa February 1998. I had thought 2000 but that was when Mix came on the air, rather than when Max departed and Barsky with her. Wrong Mix, Max!
