[edit] Fair use rationale for Image:WQBK-FM.jpg

Image:WQBK-FM.jpg is being used on this article. I notice the image page specifies that the image is being used under fair use but there is no explanation or rationale as to why its use in this Wikipedia article constitutes fair use. In addition to the boilerplate fair use template, you must also write out on the image description page a specific explanation or rationale for why using this image in each article is consistent with fair use.

Please go to the image description page and edit it to include a fair use rationale. Using one of the templates at Wikipedia:Fair use rationale guideline is an easy way to insure that your image is in compliance with Wikipedia policy, but remember that you must complete the template. Do not simply insert a blank template on an image page.

If there is other fair use media, consider checking that you have specified the fair use rationale on the other images used on this page. Note that any fair use images uploaded after 4 May, 2006, and lacking such an explanation will be deleted one week after they have been uploaded, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. If you have any questions please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you.

[edit] Date of "Q104"?

A gap in the chronology leaves an inaccurate perception that the "Q-104" tag and the change to a "classic rock" format were simultaneous in 1987. They were not.

I lived in the Capital District and listened to the station regularly when I was a kid, and it was definitely called "Q-104" at some point at least as far back as the mid-1970s. I started high school in the late-1970s and would somewhat regularly call in for album and ticket giveaways, and it was Q-104 at the time. (I very vaguely remember hearing _about_ the "Progressive 104" name from before that, but I was too young at the time to have paid much attention to it, and it's possible that I remember that either from my parents playing the station or having seen the older bumper stickers with it.)
