A Salute to Poughkeepsie’s 1st Radio Station
Click below to hear the 1971 Fun One jingle!
WKIP 1971

 


Updated December 2, 2006

Everyone has a first station that they listened to. For me, it was WKIP, whose tower and blinking red light I could see looking down from my home on Brickyard Hill. This page will include sights and sounds of the station from its beginning in 1940 through time.  Check back soon as the site it built.  Please feel free to add any comments to our Guestbook (see link below)

Additions to the website are welcome!

If you have any photos, news articles, promotional material, or airchecks, please consider sharing it with this site.
