Yes KFRC San Francisco was station of the year during this time but wow the competition was stiff nothing like the tight format at G98 I'm still trying to catch my breath. Thanks for bringing me back when I had a full head of hair.
In response to USA02 comment below......Yes, that is the same Charlie Tuna who is now a Los Angeles DJ. I love the intros to Boz Scaggs "It's Over" and The Raspberries "Go All The Way".
I loved G-98! Wmms was too full of themselves! 98 was more of a national hit station! Not playing what mms got payed off to play!

This is back when radio personalities were actually entertaining, and not some pre-programmed robot in another city, or spouting politics.

Damn ... what great energy this station had ... and with a young Charlie Tuna nonetheless. Awesome.
