Radio Station window and bumper stickers from Radio Stations across Canada that no longer exist

Radio Sticker Of The Day - March 2

Postby radiofan » Fri Mar 01, 2019 9:19 pm

From the RadioWest.ca archives and my collection of 20,000+ window and bumper stickers from radio stations around the world, a daily look back featuring stickers from stations across Canada that no longer exist due to a call letter or frequency change, rebranding or a move from AM to FM.

A 1982 CHQR 810 Calgary Flames sticker. In 1986 CHQR moved down the dial to 770 where QR 77 lives on today.

And here I thought I had all of the CHQR/QR 77 Flames stickers!

I have been a Flames fan since day one, and I've never seen this one.

How did this one elude me?

You wouldn't happen to have an extra one would you?

Rocky ... If I had a spare, I'd send it to ya.

Very few of these stickers saw the light of day. The people at the Flames office demanded the distribution of the stickers be halted immediately and that they all be destroyed.

They had an issue with the fact that there was writing over the flaming "C". This was not allowed under any circumstances.

I wasn't aware of this at the time. When I arrived at QR the following year, someone in Promotions or Engineering had a few tucked away and gave me one for my collection.
