This was WHK between their Oldies period and their time as a Sports Talk station as the ad (the first thing in this WOIO commercial break) is from 1989. It was also when WHK was sister stations with WOIO and WMMS.

Check out that long, convoluted phone number for that party line!

Also, WHK's business format didn't last too long, as in (I believe) 1991, they switched to news talk.

They had Merle Pollis in AMD, G. Gordon Liddy's then brand-new syndicated show middays, Joel Rose in PMD, and a simulcast of "Newscenter 8" at 6 p.m.
