Here are the updated ReelWorld One CHR jingles for Hits 96.1 (WHQC/Shelby-Charlotte, NC).

All jingles were recorded from the stream on Monday, October 24 and Tuesday, October 25, 2022.  The montage is arranged in chronological update order (except for the August 2022 traffic bed "Pedal 2 Medal"), and the updates themselves range from February 2016 to September 2022.  Special thanks to Tom Miner for catching the traffic bed off-air (and letting me use it)!  Enjoy!

WABC 50 years in 50 minutes
Norman Barrington's big chronological montage

I have made a new sampler, for the holiday season. I admit it is quite ambitious, consisting entirely of WABC material, and covering 1950-2004. 

I have tried to use less familiar cuts, and for added interest, a sprinkling of cuts that never made it on air (often for obvious reasons). I have avoided basic demo cuts, so as not to be predictable, but where they do appear I have rendered them in stereo, whereas normally they would be only heard in mono.

Although my chronology might not be perfect, it's fairly consistent, thus illustrating the changing styles as the decades rolled by.
I hope you agree it captures the different facets of arguably America's biggest station, as well as the well respected presenters.

Siday, Ross, CRC,  Pams, Homegrown, Pepper(!), Thunder and Jam are all represented.

It struck me that Jon Wolfert at JAM has managed to keep the WABC account for longer that all the other jingle companies put together by a long shot, a fitting tribute to WABC's number #1 fan and expert, thus I dedicate this sampler to him.

This montage is during the short time that KOST 103.5 in Los Angeles used the Reelworld One AC package! Check it out!

By the way, I kept one of Bryan Simmon's contest things on here because it was kind of funny hearing his calm voice over the overly excited woman!
