Been bugging me since I posted this. Leilani McCoy was one of the DJ’s I was trying to remember. First station I remember that did albums in the late evenings.
Speaking of ladies in broadcasting, Leslie Nielson, the Slim One, was in my class at broadcast school (LH Bates-Tacoma). She went on to KNBQ Tacoma, WLS Chicago, 610 KFRC San Francisco, and later KKHR. https://youtu.be/1ZvBlCjehtg
About Leslie, Victor Stredicke had written in our BROADCASTER page,
Leslie Nielson – Slim did not divulge a more formal name on KPLZ 101.5, in 1979. The Tacoma native previously had worked at KNBQ 97.3 Tacoma, KLAY FM Tacoma and KODL The Dalles, Or.
A “Star 101” website reports Slim is retired and living in Arizona. (VOS2013)

Loved KZAM (FM) Bellevue back in the day (70’s). Great DJ’s especially the ladies that did an excellent job.
Oops…dating myself…
