The AM Forum

Seeing posts about old AM broadcasters biting the dust I did some searching for some of the oldtimers from my old stomping grounds in Philadelphia in the 50's and 60's.   I found out that WIBG's Joe Niagara bit the dust years ago but that WIBG's Hy Lit went just last year as a result of complications from routine surgery.   He set up a web site that his son runs now.    They play Philly style oldies and old radio clips between the songs.    This I found at:

I checked on the Geator, Jerry Blavat.    He is still going strong broadcasting, running his night club in Margate, NJ. and many old fart dances around Philly and the NJ shore in the summer.   
There are several youtube videos about him.    He is still on 92.1 FM every weekday from 5-7PM and can be streamed at:

The weekday stream is from WVLT and there is one one Sunday nights from WXPN.   WXPN I believe is the Penn University station that broadcasts over many FM frequencies all over PA and NJ on the lower end of the FM band.

I also enjoy the many youtube videos of the Philly Mummers groups and plan to make an audio CD from some of them.
