WLHA is 'On the Air' Again!
"You're listening to WLHA, student radio in Madison, at 640 KHz on your AM dial, broadcasting from the basement of Elm Drive B."
Alumni who fondly recall living in the Lakeshore Dorm area from the 1950s to the 1980s will be pleased to know that WLHA is "On the Air" again! Well, it's online anyway. The WLHA tribute website is now up and running at http://lakeshore64.com/site/about.php.
There's a huge collection of audio clips, airchecks, photos, and memorabilia. There was a "WLHA Reunion/Website Launch Party" in Madison on June 14, 2008. The party was complete with old radio consoles and turntables. The WLHA Reunion and Website Launch were a result of the creative and collaborative efforts of many UW & WLHA alumni, led by Kevin Ruppert, Kevin Peckham, and Dave Bornstein.
