  • Hal Jay has been at WBAP Ft. Worth/Dallas since 1981. For 13 years he had the unusual distinction of hosting both the morning AND afternoon drive-time slots, along with pilot Dick Siegel who was in the air doing traffic reports. We visited Hal on September 3, 1993, as he anchored all of the afternoon news, sports, weather and traffic interlaced with his own good humor. At that time the station, which had transitioned from country music to news-talk, was using "The Spirit of New England" jingle package from JAM (originally created for WBZ Boston). Hal continues to host the WBAP Morning News program. This video was part of a much longer presentation that was shown in our booth at the 1993 NAB radio convention.

    The traffic clip brought back memories. I did traffic on WBAP in the early 2000s. A great time.

      They have not, but as a novelty its what they have become as TM Studios adapted and Reelworld still has a crip on radio.

      It's from a JAM package commissioned for WLS in the '80s. The stinger is the 'LS logo.
      KOMO also used that traffic bed during its final years as a full-service AC in the '90s. "This is Ted Potter in the KOMO Air Patrol..."

      Siegel went to another station a few years later. Tragically passed away from a heart attack 8 years ago after working his morning shift at KLDE radio in Eldorado, Texas.
