Radio Mugs
Description: 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.

Description: WLOL-FM was the first commercial classical music station in Minneapolis-St. Paul and was co-located with its AM sister. WLOL dropped classical and changed to "beautiful music" in mid-1973, and transitioned to a pop music format. On December 12, 1981, WLOL changed formats again, this time to Top 40/CHR as 99½ WLOL. The ratings effect was quick to take hold; in the spring 1982, WLOL more than doubled its performance and vaulted into third place in the Twin Cities, led by the revamped "Hines and Berglund" morning show. WLOL dominated Twin Cities radio in the '80s, but a new station arrived that would change the local radio landscape and not only unseat WLOL as the top dog, but lead to the station's demise in 1991.
Description: 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.
