KBHR - The Voice of the Last Frontier! Don't forget to tune in to Chris in the Morning!

San Francisco's Kamel 106 launched in 1977 as a powerhouse album rock station with a headphone wearing cartoon camel as their mascot. By the early '80s, they were one of six rock stations in the Bay area and sadly ended up flipping to a top-40 format in 1984.

WMET originally hit the air on March 9, 1959, as WDHF, owned by Hi-Fi systems and record store owner James DeHaan. Its call sign stood for DeHaan Hi-Fi and operated out of DeHaan's store in Evergreen Park, Illinois with its transmitter and tower in Oak Lawn. The station was primarily an easy listening format and would eventually go to a Top 40 model after changing ownership a few times. In 1976, the station's call letters were changed to WMET, while retaining its top 40 format and by 1979 had embraced an album-oriented rock (AOR) format.

Perfect for listening to War of the Worlds or Benny Goodman!

Radio Veronica was a Dutch pirate radio station that began broadcasting in 1960 from a ship anchored in the North Sea, catching much ire from authorities. It was set up by independent radio, TV, and household electrical retailers in the Netherlands to stimulate the sales of radio receivers by providing an alternative to the state-licensed stations of the Netherlands. Broadcasts began on April 21, 1960, with the station announcing itself as VRON (Vrije Radio Omroep Nederland; Free Radio Station [of the] Netherlands) but changed to Radio Veronica, after the poem "Het Zwarte Schaap Veronica" (The Black Sheep Veronica) by the children's poet Annie M. G. Schmidt. Radio Veronica became the most popular station in the Netherlands.

If you grew up in Detroit in the '60s and '70s, you probably listened to CKLW, an AM radio station from just across the river in Windsor, Ontario. Each week, CKLW would distribute their Big 30 record list to numerous stores throughout the Motor City which included the list of albums that made their Big 30 list that week, based on their ongoing surveys and polls. This design is based on what is probably their longest running and most recognizable logo which was came out in 1970 and aside from being used on the actual printed Big 30 album lists, could be seen on stickers, hats, and of course, on t-shirts.

Alastor, the Radio Demon from Hazbin Hotel

For nearly two decades in Dallas, a strange, winged elephant creature could be found on car windows, billboards, and the t-shirts of self-proclaimed “Zoo Freaks.” The creature was part of the logo for Dallas radio station KZEW, a station that provided the rock ’n’ roll soundtrack for a generation of locals in the post-Woodstock '70s. KZEW was a pioneer on the FM dial when there were few rockin' FM stations and those that did exist played out tranquilizing music for doctors’ offices. Life at KZEW was a zoo in itself. It was kind of like the Smothers Brothers on LSD had taken over a major broadcast facility, right in the heart of the Bible Belt. The jocks let loose with a diverse blend of rock music and didn't make use of a rigid playlist.

KLOL FM was a rock station in Houston, Texas that was on the air from 1970 until 2004. The last song broadcast by the legendary station was also the first it ever played, "I'm Free." Like many early rock stations, KLOL began as a free form/progressive outlet, then morphed over the years to AOR and then classic rock. KLOL now airs a Spanish Pop format as Mega 101.

Hitting the air in 1936, XERB was an early 'border blaster' station at 730 kHz on the AM dial. While broadcasting from across the border on Mexico's Baja peninsula, at Rosarito Beach, near Tijuana, XERB was operated as a Los Angeles radio station and packed massive power giving them coverage well beyond Los Angeles and the Inland Empire as well as most of Northern Mexico. As part of the North American Regional Broadcasting Agreement in 1941, the station moved from 730 to 1090. In 1965, Wolfman Jack moved to XERB and quickly turned it into 'Big X Soul Monster Radio' with his legendary mix of rowdy rock, raw rhythm and blues, and verbal antics. At XERB, the Wolfman quickly found a new legion of fans, including one who would later write and di
