WVMX flipped from "Mix 94.1" to "Radio 94.1" today. My guess is last night's airing of AT20 was the last for the station.

Your are correct. the 9/9/07 was the last airing of American Top 20 on WVMX. On Sunday night, 9/16/07 WVMX was just playing their regular music with their voicetrack DJ.
I would normally listen to Casey on WVMX. Howerver, I won't anymore. At least I have two other options for American Top 20 on Sunday Nights that webcasts.
CFOZ - OZ FM Sunday evenings 8:30 pm -11 :10 Eastern Time (10pm to 12:40 am Newfoundland time). The commerical breaks are very short. Thus, the shorter time, even with the optional seqments.
KTYL - Mix 93.1 Sunday evenings 10 pm - 1 am Eastern Time (9pm to 12 Midnight Central time).

KBIG out west has also switched formats to "MY" FM. I would guess that this is a loss of another big AT20 affiliate.

I can confirm this...yes, AT20 has been dropped by 104.3 in Los Angeles. Sure wouldn't be "MY" station if I lived in L.A.!

2 questions on this
1) Will AT20 move to the other Clear Channel owned Hot AC station in LA? 2) What happens with Charlie Tuna?

I just looked at the yes.com playlist for "My 104" in LA. The current playlist actually suits them to be an AT20 affiliate more than KBIG's playlist ever did. From the looks of this playlist, AT20 would sound better on the station now than ever.

When I emailed 104.3, they informed me that the speciality programs will be listed on the website in a week or two. I hope they reconsider and keep the show (along with Backtraxx USA)
Star 98.7 also flipped and looks like they are leaning toward more active rock/alternative.
Thus, if 104.3 does not keep AT20, there will be really no station in LA, to air Casey.
Star 94.1 San Diego airs Backtraxx USA from 7am-9am and AT20 9am-noon, so if you are lucky enough to live in the South Bay of LA you can pick up this station in the summer/fall.

I checked this past Sunday: No Backtrax USA was played during its former slot (2PM-4PM CET). Was not home to check whether they played AT20... Will need to wait and see if/when they publish speciality programs info.

I hate to be the negative person here, but my guess is that the shows aren't going to be on the new station...no matter how well they fit. But I sure hope that I'm wrong!

I think I have only seen one My-station (not really sure which one - will get back to you on that one, when/if I find it again), that still airs Backtrax USA. On the unfortunate side, that station airs AT40 HAC... ...so, I have to agree with Scott. We just lost two AT20 (online) affiliates

Well, on the plus side, nenad, Ryan's show already airs in Los Angeles, so they're not going to put AT40 on the former KBIG.

Well, in that case, we'll only have to wait and see what the new KBIG comes up with in next few weeks (whether there will be any speciality programs - and if so, what these will be)...

What exactly is a "My" station? And what makes some of the radio shows/DJ's not fit those channels? Is it a jukebox type station with no personality?
