Evidence note (master store)

The Chicago Tribune Magazine's March 4, 1979 listeners' guide to Chicago radio lists '1570-WBEE / Independent / Sunrise-Sunset / Chicago-Harvey / Jazz' and calls it 'the only all-jazz station in the Chicago market' — establishing WBEE as a radio station at 1570 AM in the Chicago-Harvey area (fetched in full 2026-10-17). The guide does not describe WBEE as a Black station; the stored 'Black radio' characterization is not covered by this stamp.
