Thanks for the memory jolt, bandit73. Yes, the Anderson station carrying CC in the mid-90s was WXXP or Experience 98, as they called their station. And I also loved Power 94.5 when it was a rock-leaning CHR station. Wasn't too happy when they flipped to AC. From what I could piece together, WENS was an AC station but was AT40's affiliate for the Indy market during the 80s and also carried CT40 during the first couple of years or so. Never really understood why they broadcast the show (WZPL would've been a more logical choice), and as ulij20 mentioned, they could've picked up CC when it debut in 1992 but never did. So for a period of time, Casey was not heard on any Indianapolis station until WENS picked CH20 in 1996, which coincidentally was also when the station was evolving into an HAC format. Now that I'm in Atlanta, I did some research on Casey airing in this market and found out that Power 99 (WAPW) aired CT40 from 1989 through 1992 before they flipped to Alternative. Star 94 (WSTR) broadcast it between 1993-5 before they dropped it in favor of Rick Dees Weekly Top 40. CH20 or CC was not heard in this market. |

Star 94 in Atlanta did switch from "Casey's Top 40" to "Casey's Hot 20" in 1995. They picked up Rick Dees in 1993 after Power 99 dropped him when they became 99X. So for a while, Star 94 carried both Casey and Rick. And Star 94 also carried "The Hitlist" with Elvis Duran for a while in 1994-95.

WAOA in Melbourne continued to run it on Saturday mornings after Curry left the show. And then in 1995, WXXL in Orlando which was running Casey's Top 40 in AT40's place on Saturday mornings (it also aired in it's usual Sunday morning slot as well) replaced that airing with Hitlist. I hated the voice with the noises "Hitlist...Live!" The company that did the show, ERN also produced a call in interview show that aired in Jacksonville for a short time called Power something I think but I can't remember exactly. Anyway, it aired there at like 1am, and in Melbourne at 7...yet they still called it a live show. Anyway, by 1995 WAOA had moved Dees to Saturday morning and dumped Hitlist Live on CD, and it wasn't on XL in Orlando but a few months at the most. |

The "Hitlist" was on XL106.7 from July 15, 1995 to January 11, 1997. There were times where they were a week behind on the show. 93-3 FLZ in Tampa carried the "Hitlist" for 11 months from November 1995 to October 1996, they dropped the show when Elliott (Segal) replaced Patti Steele as Elvis Duran's co-host and picked up Rick Dees in its place on Sunday mornings; they had Casey on Saturday mornings.

And WAOA dropped the "Hitlist" sometime in the Fall of 1994, just a few months after Elvis Duran replaced Adam Curry as the host. They moved Rick Dees from Sundays 3pm-7pm to Saturdays 6am-10am on the last weekend of July 1995.

I take it you live down this way also. Rick at 3 was pretty nice at the time.
