What A World
Growing up and listening to this station play ANYTHING possible, to the corporate CC world it's in today, is unbelievable. Jocks used to bring in their own records, they'd take a school closing announcement from anybody without verification, and dead air was usually because someone was lighting up a fatty out back.

WTAO was piped into the dining hall at Thompson Point when I was a student at SIU in the early '70s. It had the typical "underground FM" sound that was popular back then. No doubt your description is exactly right.
