The old WOR Radio towers come crashing down

Digital Towers? You mean the analog is turned off?

From what I've been told, the Carteret site operated from l935 to l968 or early '69 and was a figure-8 directional pattern to cover both NYC and Philadelphia. As Philly got more of its own stations, WOR moved its transmitter to Lyndhurst NJ to better cover the New York metro along with Northern NJ and southern CT.

I like how he said well its a new generation so whatever

very inteligent it takes alot to realize your time is done
very nice end to a radio career

John Wingate had the smoothest delivery of the news on WOR 7:10 am radio. Jean Shepherd was a treasure, what a story teller.

These were not the "old" WOR towers. The "old" WOR towers were a self-supporting duo in Carteret NJ and dated from the 1930s, I think. The ones that are pictured here are the "new" ones in Livingston NJ, put up in the 1970s.

Lyndhurst not Livingston, genius...

that would be the WOR that is Associated with WWOR 9? Is it?

No...that would be 710-AM WOR.

USED TO be WOR-TV...

Oh man. truly an icon of my kidhood, the towers I gazed at from the back seat of my dad's Olds; the towers that brought Jean Shepherd's voice to the transister radio I hid under my covers. Well, the towers may be gone, but Flick lives!
