As was common in those days, the studios were located at the transmitter site which was on South Quaker Lane near Talcott Road in West Hartford. The entire station was housed in a small brick building with “WCCC” in big neon letters on the top adjacent to the 220-foot tall AM tower. WCCC was considered a Full Service station and offered news, farm reports, sports and the popular music of the day.
