"PAMS Radio Jingles" "WUBE 1230 AM Cincinnati, OH" PAMS Series 20, 28, 16, 23, 24, 31, custom

"1-2-3 WB CINCINNATI! Is how it was presented in the on-air radio jingles, but the actual call letters were WUBE. These PAMS jingles, I'm guessing, are from WUBE's first year on the air in 1966. There is a mix of jingles from Series 20, "Weatherettes", from 1962; Series 16, "Sound Of The City" from 1961; Series 23, "Sono Magic", 1963; Series 24, "His & Her Radio", 1962; Series 28, "Happiness Is", from 1964; Series 31, "Music Explosion", 1966 (as well as a couple that may have originally been custom cuts for another station.) More than likely, powerhouse station WSAI had the latest PAMS jingles on the air, so WUBE had to go with a mix of older packages. There is an interesting history behind WUBE which I had mapped out- until I realized Wikipedia had the whole story and tells it much better than I ever could. So here it is: "...The AM license was originally granted in 1924 and broadcast as WFBE at 1290 AM, later moving to 1230. It was the weakest of five AM stations in Cincinnati. Scripps-Howard Newspapers (now the E. W. Scripps Company) purchased the station in October 1935, renaming it WCPO after The Cincinnati Post.[1] (Scripps-Howard Broadcasting would later launch sister stations WCPO-TV and WCPO-FM.) WCPO was Cincinnati's first Top 40/Rock 'n' Roll station, and was in the format from 1956 until it was sold in 1966. WCPO encountered serious competition from the stronger WSAI 1360 when that station entered the Top 40 format in July 1961. WSAI broadcast with 5,000 watts day and night, while WCPO broadcast with 1,000 watts during the day and only 250 watts at night. Some of the DJs on WCPO in the 1960s included Shad O'Shea, Mike Gavin, Bob Keith, Mark Edwards, Gary Allyn, Ron Beach and Gary Cory. Scripps-Howard sold the station to Kaye-Smith Broadcasting whose principals were Danny Kaye (the entertainer) and business associate Lester Smith, in January 1966. On January 15, 1966, the station call letters were changed to WUBE, and almost the entire air staff was replaced. After another three-year run as a Top-40 station under the direction of legendary programmer Bill Drake as "1-2-3-W-B", it became a country music-formatted station in April 1969. They operated the station along with their FM sister (which was renamed WUBE-FM) until the late 1970s when they sold all their radio properties to Plough Broadcasting, then a part of the pharmaceutical company, Schering-Plough." https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/WDBZ
