Rev-105 and 97x were intensely important to my love for and thinking about radio, and both are gone (and have been for years).  Both stations managed to be both commercial and interesting, programmed and eclectic.  There are some great stations still around, including of course our home for years 93.9 The River, plus The Current in Minneapolis and KEXP in Seattle.

But I — perhaps avoiding some real work — thought I’d create a little bit of imaging for the show based on the long-gone liners and promos from Rev and WOXY.  Thanks to some former staffers for providing the 97x files, and to whoever owns Rev105.com for the Rev-105 sounds:
