A shot of the WKLO showcase studios in the late 1960s.
Mary Ann Weidner receives a check from Bill Bailey outside the WKLO Studio on Walnut Street on November 13, 1965. She won $210 in the Cash Call Promotion.
Kentuckiana teens cruised Walnut and 4th Streets to go by the WKLO and WAKY showcase studios. Many times there was an attempt to get the jock to say something about the school. In this 1969 photo, youths from Valley High School hung a Butler Bear in effigy prior to a big football game. |  |
LEFT: Here's the early '70s version of WKLO Control Board. Note the Lazy Susan that's holding 3x5 cards (live PSAs). Somehow it managed to end up at WAKY when a certain WKLO jock left. This is the same board that was put in place when WKLO started broadcasting from the Walnut Street showcase studios in the mid-60s, except it's been modified by the WKLO engineering staff. The middle row of push buttons and the large knobs to the right of the buttons have been removed, replaced by five smaller pots.
RIGHT: The WKLO Control Room in 1974; note the addition of the "homemade" row of pots and remote starts and the addition of the ITC triple-decker cart machine. Eventually another ITC 3D machine would be added. The board was used all the way through WKLO's demise in 1979.
