McCoy came to Atlanta in 1981 to work at legendary top 40 WZGC FM (Z-93).  One of his most memorable moments at this time at Z93, was his recording of "The Falcon Fight Song" with lyrics including: "Asked the Falcons what they wanted to be; Super Bowl champs from Suwanee; They want to be famous, show off their rings; So Rankin can buy a lot of stupid things."  He remained there until 1987, when he jumped to new top 40 station Power 99.  This is where he began working with Locke, who was doing the news at the time.  In 1989, Steve left Atlanta, after a nationwide search by Ron Chapman found Steve to be his one and only replacement for his long-time morning show at KVIL FM in Dallas, Texas.  One year into the plan, however, Clarke Brown, the man who launched Star 94 (Atlanta) talked Steve into coming back to the town he loved to take over the morning show.  He said he'd only come back if they'd get Vikki to come on board.  Steve returned, and he and Vikki helped the struggling WSTR FM (Star 94) morning show (and eventually the whole station) receive higher Arbitron ratings.  Steve and Vikki's 18-year run on Star 94 was only bested by Rhubarb Jones' 23-year run on country station WYAY Y106.7/Eagle 106.7 both WYAY, now All News 106.7.
