As I listen to AT40: The 70's 8/21/1971 this morning via WXXM Rewind 92.1 FM Madison, Wisconsin: In the part where Casey talks about how the weekly Billboard Hot 100 is tabulated (almost every week): 100 record stores are used for the Hot 100 panel at the August 1971 time?? I found it interesting that no stats for airplay were included in the formula. At what point did that change? For the week ending 6/9/73. The infamous 'wrong chart data given to Watermark' week. 'Data' not 'date', corrected my typo.

Listening to KLFM right now. They are airing their voiceovers over Casey near the end of the segments cutting out his last word or two. Is anyone hearing this too or is it just me? They've done this intermittently for years. I had to stop listening to KLFM because it drove me nuts.

Appears you are correct. But the June '73 change was a pretty big one. I think the weight given to airplay vs. sales changed at that time. Chart runs changed after that, with more up-down-up again movement. The Ohio Players' "Ecstasy" from later that year being a good example--it peaked at three different times on the Hot 100. Twice at #34 and then a final time at #31.

The last song KCIM played before the countdown started was "Sooner Or Later". A few minutes later Casey announced it as one of the five songs that dropped out this week.

This week's B is indeed 8/25/79. KOKZ usually avoids the earliest shows (they picked 1978 over 1971 last week), so most likely we should get the full four hours from it, and of course WPNC as well.
