Made the following updates:
- Added the streaming link for WGHN
- Added WMXW
- Added additional info on KSOF
- Added info on KISC
- Now listing broadcast times in blue if there is some question about the time or show (i.e. Dayllight Saving Time, Sports coverage, or rotating between decades). I am also attempting to list the DST air times. I may not have the Australia ones exactly right.

Radio station WQLF is listed as airing both the 70's & 80's shows, with a stream link that seems to always be in "blackout" mode. A further review of their website ( www.bigradio.fm/ ), shows an eight station radio cluster. The "Listen In" section allows you to choose any one of the eight stations, but most if not all will be in "blackout" mode. Further looking at their schedule, reveals that they may only stream local shows like H.S. sports, local news, some church hours and a Big Band show. There is no mention of AT 40 on their site. Does anyone know if this station really does air AT 40? |

Updates:
-Removed station 2ST. Could not get a stream to work and no mention of AT 40 on their website. If anyone knows for sure that they air it, I'll add it back.
-Added WJER, which is on the 70's list, but they played the 1980 show yesterday. So they can alternate between decades.
Interesting note on WKIX. I can never get their stream to play on my computer, so they could be Geo-Blocked, but I did get their stream to play on my iPhone - by following the same link listed in this thread.

The last two times I listened to AT40 on WKZG all 4 extras were played. However on one week in October when I listened to it only 2 of the 4 extras were played. So maybe the thing to write here is "plays extras not on a consistent basis".

The Hits 100 Aruba Wednesday rebroadcast of the 80's show is at 7 PM EST (not 8 PM) when DST is not in effect.

Thanks. I have updated the times. Thanks. To be nitpicky, the listing for Sunday also mentions the Wednesday rerun, so it also needs to be updated. |

New affiliate to add:
AT40: The 80s has been picked up by CKSJ 101.1 (Coast FM) in St. John's, Newfoundland (where i live). They air on Saturdays from 7-11 p.m. on Saturday evenings, and Sunday afternoons from Noon-4 p.m. There is no certainty if it will play both "A" and "B" options during a weekend, or what era they will choose, but I wouldn't be surprised if CKSJ follows the lead of KOKZ and avoids late-1986 and beyond, but due to what i suspect to be CKSJ's ban on rap music.
Makes sense, since AT40: The 80s replaces The Best of Charlie Tuna: The 70s, so I am guessing CKSJ lost the rights to air Charlie Tuna's show very recently.
Link to CKSJ's site to come.
EDIT: CKSJ may also offer a 70s rebroadcast too.

I looked at the website ( www.coast1011.com/ ) and one of their banners shows both the 70's and 80's shows and both time slots. I'm wondering if one of the time slots is for the 70's show and the other is for the 80's? |

I do know from a friend of mine she did hear a show with one of Andy Gibb's rarely heard songs (she is pretty sure it was "Desire", which was actually #13 on last weekend's "A" option from 1980). So it is known that CKSJ does definitely air the 1980s series. One website suggests that Coast 101.1 may air either 70s or 80s, though that could be just speculation. I'll have to listen to the very beginning of the Coast 101.1 broadcasts tomorrow and Sunday to confirm what decade(s) is/are featured in CKSJ's run.
If CKSJ is not listed for the 70s series, chances are it may be strictly the 1980s series.

Given the time slots designated by CKSJ, and since most of the 70s episodes are three hours long, I think it most likely implies that CKSJ will be airing the 80s series.
I'll be tuning in to CKSJ around 7 p.m. to find out what decade will be featured. Same thing for noon tomorrow.
If it is indeed 80s only, when 1987 or 1988 is next scheduled as an "A" option, I will probably tune in to find out if CKSJ will ait them despite the affiliate's "no rap/hip-hop" policy, or if they will choose the "B" option for those weeks.
I do know that during the latter months of 1986, Run DMC had songs with separate chart runs ("Walk This Way" and "You Be Illin'"), and early 1987 had Beastie Boys, plus maybe other hip-hop sounding songs. Rap and hip-hop was starting to become more mainstream during the latter half of 1987.

Just tuned in to CKSJ. CKSJ apparently has the 70s AT40 as well, likely on Saturday evenings only. February 19, 1977 is airing right now, but starting off at #27 with Smokie's "Living Next Door to Alice."
I wonder if, for CKSJ to only air the final two hours, this is a case where CKSJ is trying to get the kinks worked out with regards to 70s broadcasts?
Tomorrow, we will find out if 1983 will air.

I was just thinking, could it be possible that CKSJ plays the shows differently as opposed to an average station, and since I just heard "Car Wash" at #7 very recently, I wonder if they may be playing only the latter two hours of each of the 70s and 80s episodes as a way to fill each of the four-hour slots on Saturdays and Sundays?
If they don't air the full episodes, I will pass on it.
THIS JUST IN: After Larry Morgan signed off the show, CKSJ went to their usual playlist. Now they're starting the final two hours of the 1983 show. Looks like the writing's on the wall - I will pass on the CKSJ airings.
Oh, and CKSJ does play the optional extras.

So, they played 2 hours of the 1977 show immediately followed by two hours of the 1983 show?
Actually yes - i just tuned them in and they're playing "Down Under", and I heard the #26 song from the 1977 show at 5:35. What a screwy way to handle the broadcast.
