WCAU-FM Hot Hits 98 Philadelphia - Todd Parker, Terry "Motormouth" Young - February 11, 1982 - Radio Aircheck In 1981, Many radio programmers thought Top 40 radio was dying, or already dead. Many Top 40 stations, who were primarily on AM radio, were sounding more like Adult Contemporary stations. They were kind of soft, low energy, and, kind of dull. in the 60s & 70s, the format was exciting & full of energy, but now, they had become pretty boring. That trend began to reverse itself, when CBS Radio hired Mike Joseph, who was already consulting the Philly AM, 1210 WCAU. They wanted Joseph to bring some rating to it’s FM, Mellow Rhythm 98 WCAU-FM. The station was playing a mix of soft hits, smooth R&B, & Jazz. Joseph decided the station should go Top 40, with lots of fast paced excitement, high energy jocks, and the top current songs , with lots of jingles. Joseph coined the term, “Hot Hits” for his format. The new format took off in Philly like a rocket! The format was installed on other radio stations like WHYT Detroit, WBBM-FM Chicago, WMKR & WMAR-FM Baltimore, and WNVZ Norfolk. This aircheck features WCAU-FM’s Hot Hits format with Morning guy & Program Director Scott Walker, and midday host Richard Hawkins.
