Peter, give it a rest. Please.FYI: A thread on the Ask Radio-Info board is discussing setting of a separate board for "retro schedules."

Actually, I find this post fascinating. I started college in Providence in September of 1980. I vividly remember watching Walter Cryan and Jim Roberts on WPRI at 6pm and Jim Roberts with Ann Kellan at 11pm. Doug White and Larry Estepa (with Patrice Wood at 5pm) on WJAR. IIRC, WPRI adopted the "Hello News" theme song/branding that fall.What I didn't realize is Channel 6 had just changed to WLNE and Action News. I remember Magee Hickey (Brown Alum & current WCBS reporter) and Chris Conanglia (now in Twin Cities) doing a split newscast between Providence and New Bedford at 6pm, 7pm, and 11pm. John Greenwood anchored at noon and Kathryn Grey anchored on the weekends. No wonder they had some many theme commercials saying/singing/screaming "At WLNE, We Love New England".
