WGN Chicago gets JAM jingles
JAM updated the rotation of station logos on their front page recently, and one entry that stood out to me was WGN Chicago. Sure enough, they're airing resings from the WABC Top News package.
WABC itself is also listed again - they're mostly using instrumental sounders, but with the occasional sung cut sprinkled in.
Comments
of "exclusivity" on-air before being offered to other potential clients?
PS - WGN 720 have been around a VERY long time - I even got a commemorative LP from them
away back in 1971/72! Last time they changed call letters was...1924 !
Great to hear that not only are they still broadcasting, but have the gumption to use JAM :^)
Sounds Great!!
And great to see various new stations on the Jam website:

If you guys want one, and if I end up with time this weekend (yay homework), I can put together a montage from their online stream. I don't see any new demos on the JAM site. What do you mean by "new stations" on the site?
(Yes please! WGN is geo-blocked here in the UK)
"I even got a commemorative LP from them away back in 1971/72!"
The LP had all sorts of clips & archive stuff, including a spoken ID of "WGN Chicago" - the radio home of millions across the Mid-West",
and the LP sleeve pictures included a sepia pic of a big "curved caravan"-style 1950s OB unit - nowadays on "OB unit" is a guy with a smartphone!.
:^)
also, sorry I didn't get a full montage up on my end; I recorded from the online stream, but I haven't had time to edit something together.
I don't understand Why not just share the YouTube Link? ?
I can't find it on the TM Studios Site but I'm sure if you "Reach Out" ? they will post it! ?
