96.5 to go all-Christmas 11/21 at 5pm

I checked the last songs played on WOEX's website and it's similar to WMGF with the exception of in the first 5 hours they played 3 Christmas songs in Spanish.
WPOZ and WNUE have not flipped to all Christmas yet, but I'm sure they will after Thanksgiving and include quite a bit of the well tested Christmas songs from secular artists as well.
Does this market really need 4 Christmas stations.
And depending on where you live, you may be able to listen up to 6 Christmas stations

Even though Contemporary Christian stations might also go all-Christmas music, with some secular artists included, I really don't think they're in the same category. It's more a case of CCM stations trying to stop their audiences from drifting to the secular all-Christmas stations but not the reverse.

True, but FWIW the CCM's here are commercial free. Outside of the hourly features they may already have throughout the day, plus the occasional begathon, those listeners won't have to deal with 12+ minutes worth of commercials an hour.

Assuming both Z88.3 and Joy flip in a week, I'll be able to get six:

Z88.3
Hits 96.5
Joy 98.1
Lite Rock 99.3 (Brevard)
Mix 100.7 (Tampa)
Magic 107.7

That said, the three iHeart offerings (Magic, Mix and Lite) are all airing the 'Holiday Season Radio' national logs, so in most dayparts their offerings will be near-identical.
 
What about Juan Gabriel's 24 de Diciembre, Los Bukis' Navidad Sin Ti, Ricky Martin's Ay Ay Ay, It's Christmas, Marco Antonio Solís' Linda Noche Buena, Jaci Velasquez's Feliz Navidad, Alvaro Torres' Ven a Mi Casa en Esta Navidad and more by playing Spanish Christmas music?

La Exitosa 98.7 in NYC should be flipped to Bilingual Christmas music with more English with less Spanish. You must do it.
 
The 97.1 Mega Translators also flipped to all-Christmas.

Honestly, even with that many Puerto Ricans in Orlando, I'd never expect to hear José Nogueras and Los Hispanos there.

Well, they've found a way around the whole "playing drinking songs at 7:00 am" issue. They play regular music during the Enrique Santos show.
