I grew up in peak radio NYC era. As many over-the-air choices as anywhere at the time. wide choices : many AOR stations to WBLS, WWRL, WLIB and on and on (and no TV age 5-20) Still plenty of gaps in my big hits knowledge, e.g., for decades there was only ONE country station, WHN

Yes. People voting with their feet...early hip-hop (speaking only for my experience ca. 78-84, ages 14-20) was barely on the radio, not even on WBLS, WWRL, so live shows, school yards, house parties, clubs, rollerskating (at the club) and in the streets were where you heard the real ish.

When I was 10 I broke my arm and laid in a hospital bed with a transistor radio. I can still see it every time I hear Yesterday, one of the songs that played. Also grew up with d.j. Frankie Crocker on WWRL.

Wow! We had the NYC version of that station named WWRL (1600 AM) that I listened to as a very young boy in the late 1960s thru the early 1970s.
It was affectionately known as "Super 16". It's sister station was WBLS (107.5 FM).
