News / Talk 870AM, 95.9FM WHCU celebrates its 90th year of broadcasting on January 23rd, 2013.

The Cayuga Radio Group radio station plans to mark the event with many historical elements being played on air and shown online throughout January leading up to the anniversary date on the 23rd.

“We are fortunate to have many signature audio elements and historical print pieces from our station history,” said Lee Rayburn, host of Morning News Watch on WHCU, “legendary broadcasters like Rudy Paolangeli and David Stewart have generously offered many of their archived pieces from our station’s rich history.”

WHCU will utilize its website and Facebook pages to display many great photographs and documents from the station’s history.  In addition, many audio elements will be integrated into the station’s broadcasts during January.

“There’s a lot of Ithaca’s history in WHCU.  The call letters “HCU” stand for ‘home of Cornell University’”, said Operations Manager Chris Allinger, “highlighting our 90 years of broadcasting the news is a tremendous tribute to all the great staff past and present that have made the station what it is today.”
