If im not mistaken, i might be wrong I think WPAC now airs 1985, am i right? WPAC occasionally airs B shows. Nearby station, WSNN airs the A shows twice weekly.

Regarding 3/20/82, this must be the only time ever when the same currently charting song was used as an LDD in back to back weeks, that being Kenny Rogers' "Through the Years". It only had one more (guest hosted) week on the countdown, but remained a longtime dedication favourite.

WFMX is airing March 29, 1986. Is that next weekend's B show to go with the 1981 show?

^WFMX has aired the 3 previous B shows the prior Sunday night. March 29, 1986 show last aired in 2020.

I've always remembered it as having gotten higher than #13 nationally, probably because it was Top 3 in NYC.

In terms of airplay these memories may be right, as it reached #5 in Radio & Records. In Billboard it was also #5 Country and #1 AC.

For the week of April 1, I'll predict 4/5/80. It's most likely between this one and 4/4/87; going with 1980 since 1987 has been more recently featured.

WFRO was doing good last night until the very last segment, where they played the number 2 and number 1 from last week's 1988 show instead.
Any other stations that might play 1985 this week?

I heard that, too. But it's okay. I dig Father Figure and Never Gonna Give You Up and missed last week's show, so I'll take it.

I think it either has to be 3/26/83 or 3/28/87.
