The show ran from 1978-1982. At the time UHF TV went up to channel 83. It was in 1983 that the UHF spectrum was changed and channels 70-83 were removed. So, channel 71 mentioned in the show would've been correct at the time.

Also in the bomb threat ("Phone Cops") two part episode, Les references a "Channel 73" in Dayton, which was blown up (in the middle of The John Davidson Show) by the same group which called the bomb threat into WKRP.

I love the show WKRP in Cincinnati. I watched all of the seasons when they were being first broadcast. It was such a fun show, and a great lead out of the depressing 1970's shows from years before this show came into being. The only way someone would have noticed these incorrect details is if the were training to be a movie Gaffer, or binge watching entire runs of episodes back to back nowadays. Stop sucking the joy out of fun shows. This show was at the top of the comedy genre when it was running.

I loved the show.... The turkey drop was great, but i also enjoyed the surreal thoughts of the concert give away, where a fan died in the leaving of the concert. It showed that WKRP was not afraid to look at some ofthe negative sides. Also, the paster that wanted to restrict certain songs, and the funeral home plugs that were stopped. In them two, it showed that Mr. Carlson was not just a bumbling fool.

Always had a hunch that the wKRP, was a synonym for "krap"... Great show on TV, which we sadly don't get much anymore.

The UHF band goes from 300 MHz to 3 GHz and is broken down into channels numbered 14 to 83. Channel 71 was a real option, not an error…. It wasn’t until 1983 that channel 71 was removed as part of an expansion of repeater transmitter options.

[@rdmineer1]

I was a huge fan. When the show first launched, small stations like WKRP had some serious competition. WLW-AM, the only commercial station on the planet ever to broadcast 500,000 watts of power, still ruled the airwaves in Cincinnati. That is half a million, folks. I found Jennifer and Bailey were equally charming, in their own ways. Both were presented as highly intelligent, one of the first shows to properly share this reality about women. Character development was well done. Like, we came to know that despite the extra polish, Jennifer was actually much like Bailey, just another girl next door. Sadly, Mr. Carlson, Herb and now Johnny have all passed on. Every actor was believable in character. Like me, straight man Andy, Gary Sandy, is actually a local native. As any other, the city does have its problems, but from anywhere across the river the Cincinnati skyline is truly an amazing sight to see.

The clip @ 3:25, from a European viewpoint they could be on the 1st floor. They consider the entrance as ground level and you go up to the 1st floor, so the window would be around that height. If you think about it, we never consider a single story building as being the 1st floor.

Interesting, thanks for sharing! Which episode is the most memorable for you?

[@richardallison8745]

It was not accurate in one way. DJs always use headphones to monitor their own voices and also to help when introducing LPs to see how the production booth sounded on the air and how to spot on how advertisements were sounding on the air. I never seen DJs on the air without headphones.

[@stratostatic]

Actually a DJ only needs to have one ear in a headphone briefly when 'going up' to be sure the mic is on. Otherwise, experienced on air personallities don't need to hear their own voices.. That's the way the show accurately portrayed the DJ's being old hands at their profession.

Actually, shortly after Frank Bonner's (Herb Tarlek) death, I read that in the episode "A Family Affair", Herb comes in on crutches, following Les Nessman, stating that he put his back out while trying a promotion while air gliding as the fish, attached to the back of Les's car. These crutches were actually used due to a real-life water skiing accident that left Mr. Bonner having to use crutches. In a similar thing, I just recently saw a clip from WKRP vs. Love Boat on Family Feud. Frank Bonner was one of the contestants, and he had crutches with him, then, too. It may be possible that it was the same injury, but it could have been another one.
