WGSP (AM)

The transmitter is off Bellaire Drive, near West Brookshire Freeway (North Carolina Highway 16) in Charlotte.

WKTC disc jockey Johnny Jacobs demonstrated that a person could live in a fallout shelter for a long period of time (which people during the Cold War feared they would have to do), spending a week there and contacting the station by phone.

[3] WKTC became Charlotte's first full-time Christian radio station in September 1970, with gospel music and "contemporary inspirational singing" as well as syndicated religious programming and news.

WGSP ("Great Sounds of the Past") returned to the air as one of Charlotte's first oldies stations, playing a wide variety of standard pop hits and "beach music."

At its peak, the WGSP air staff included Program Director Paul Ingles, Rick Ballew, Fielding Spicer, David Appleford, Phil England and Darby James.
