This shot was taken at WSSX
(a.k.a. "95SX") in Charleston, South Carolina, where I worked from 1981 until
1985. The first control room had a rotary-pot McMartin board and a pair of ITC
triple deck cart machines. When the control room moved, we got a rotary-pot Gates "President" board.
Along with the aforementioned pair of
ITC triple-deck cart machines, the control room sported the Ampex reel-to-reel you see behind
me. When I started there, the station had a "Top Tracks" format, which was a Top
40/AOR hybrid. (Lots of Led Zeppelin, Journey, Eagles, Fleetwood Mac, Allman
Brothers...) After a couple of years it had morphed into a true CHR. Bill
Martin was the PD who hired me. Brian Phillips was the PD when I left
to go "across the street" to WXTC. |
