Скачать или смотреть 102.5 Wdve Pittsburgh flashback

going way back into the kqv days. made it for fun, and for my interest in old pittsburgh.


The station has aired rock music since 1969, when it was owned by ABC. Previously, it was known as KQV-FM and simulcasted sister station KQV. The new programming was a tape service of album rock entitled "Love" created by ABC official Allen Shaw designed specifically for airing on the 7 FM stations owned by ABC. Shaw changed the format from automated "Love" format to live "free form" album rock in 1970. The station's current call letters were chosen in 1971 at the height of the "hippie" era. "DVE" was derived from "dove", the bird of peace. In the fall of 1971, Shaw, along with ABC Radio programming executive Bob Henaberry, replaced the "free form" rock programming with the very first album rock "format", playing only the best cuts from the best selling rock albums with minimal disc jockey talk. WDVE was the most successful FM radio station in Pittsburgh throughout the 1970s. In early print marketing the phrase "Rock'n Stereo WDVE 102.5" was set in white text against a black oval background surrounded by vivid rainbow-like colors. Later the logo was rendered in white and yellow with red accents against a black background, generally using the slogan "DVE Rocks." -http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/WDVE
