We used to cruise around in my parents 98 Oldsmobile at night jamming to Wynn. The Home Brew album rocked. Saw some of those bands at the "Bluegrass Festival" in Courtland. That was a blast. Snuff used to play some of the Bronco Club Pig Pickin's. Great times and many memories.

I used to hear Fire on High everyday at noon and still remember how special that was when I hear it today.

After being Stationed in Alaska I was sent to Commsta Portsmouth, Va located on the Naval Security Group Activity on Balahack Rd. about 2 miles from the Station in Moyock. The station provided great entertainment to us. Sometimes during the late evenings or around midnight a couple of times some of us stopped by to visit the DJ's. I love the midnight Broadcast Day renewell with E.L.O. "Fire on High" as the music background. In 2006 I was traveling to South Hill, Va for "Bike Virginia" and decided to visit my old command and I also went to the site. It was shutdown. Also Moyock was build up. It just use to be a few houses, a Garage, and the station with it's massive tower. Thanks for the memories.gnkenhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05395764704804068541noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1216330353213683245.post-67020589447002489272010-01-06T03:48:41.975-08:002010-01-06T03:48:41.975-08:00I worked at K-94 ans ZAM-11 in 1979-80 part time w...I worked at K-94 ans ZAM-11 in 1979-80 part time weekends and assistant engineer. John Heimerl and Joe Wetherbee were my mentors. The greatest radio/audio talent in the mid Atlantic region came through that Moyock dirt road including Wynn Evers, Jim Stanley, and Brandon Stacy. Everyone was great to work with and taught me more than I could ever learn in college. <br /><br />It was my first gig in Hampton Roads radio. Learning to synch with Zeke was a hard lesson. But I wouldn't trade my experiences there for a national talk show slot. <br /><br />Memory road trips, gotta love 'em!Eddie Lucaniahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17564766468347624149noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1216330353213683245.post-3237018413510919942009-12-11T08:55:22.658-08:002009-12-11T08:55:22.658-08:00I listened to K94 all the time in 1978 and 79.This...I listened to K94 all the time in 1978 and 79.This station rocked hard!<br />If anyone has any airchecks from this period i would love to do a trade i have lots.<br />Thanks<br />wmbunn@msn.comBacksasserhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07110485698880005167noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1216330353213683245.post-48208534353249543302009-07-24T06:26:48.547-07:002009-07-24T06:26:48.547-07:00This comment has been removed by the author.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1216330353213683245.post-70043973369822101672009-07-24T06:26:00.166-07:002009-07-24T06:26:00.166-07:00Ya'll...here's another country heard from,...Ya'll...here's another country heard from, Randy Berner here, former 2pm-6pm Rock n' Roll DJ on K-94. I was on ZAM from the day it signed on. Then, moved to Moyock, when we began to simulcast the afternoon...this was about '77-'81. We moved to Pittsburgh in '82 to work for the Benns operation here. To James Timebandit...the version of the Sign On that you posted on YouTube is the Jim Stanley version. It had to be remade when we got offices in Norfolk. The original original by Bill Rogers is lost to the ages or is stashed somewhere in Bill Rogers archives. But like Wynn says Bill can be heard doing the same sign on on Radiontenna (WHRO).

I tuned in on my little transistor raido and was hooked. Years later when I finally got an FM radio I made the switch to K-94. What a great station! I listened throughout my high school years but being a rocker at heart I just wasn't ready for that modern rock/rhythm of the city stuff. It was sad to see a great station go away. I taped the entire last show on cassettes with all the old personalities doing one last bit, even "smash shannon." Anyone know what happened to that dude?<br />I will have to clean out my garage to find those tapes and hopefully, they are still playable. I used to stay up just to hear the "fire on high" sign on before going to bed.<br />Thanks to all who made the great K-94 possible. It was the soundtrack of my young life.<br />mrglenn66@yahoo.comBravo 24https://www.blogger.com/profile/05076155066823541453noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1216330353213683245.post-85136429293825519672009-06-01T19:25:11.631-07:002009-06-01T19:25:11.631-07:00I was there in 1974 and 1975, and was the second j...I was there in 1974 and 1975, and was the second jock on the station.
