Is this a recording of 99.9 WQQQ Easton, PA (1970s Beautiful Music)?

This is a cassette tape I found at a thrift store in Watchung, NJ. Judging by the label design and music on it, it's from the mid 1970s. It's a recording of a Beautiful Music / Easy Listening station. Unfortunately most of the IDs got cut off, except for "Stereo...", a call sign beginning with W, and an ID of 99.9 FM.

The two closest Beautiful Music stations to NJ on 99.9 FM at the time were WQQQ in Easton, PA (now WODE) and WEZN in Connecticut. I'm leaning more towards WQQQ since with an antenna pointed in the right direction, you could (and still can) pick them up here in central NJ.

Oh, and you get to hear an old couple arguing at times, since it was recorded with a microphone held in front of the speakers, instead of a direct connection...
