KZPO 103.3 Kings Radio, Lindsay CA (Visalia/Fresno) It's more of a Nostalgia Format than the typical Oldies station, Dean; Frank; Nat; Doris; John Denver;Barry Manilow; some Elvis and so forth, 40s to early 70s easy listening.
WQSV-AM 790 in Ashland City, TN, plays oldies but they are a "full service" station, so they carry a lot of other programming (like sports), too. You can listen to them at http://www.wqsvam790.com.

They don't stream, but Cruisin' Oldies 1050 WJCM Sebring FL has a tight, mostly pre-Beatles, playlist. Their policy can be found at www.cohanradiogroup.com
They really go back, and ask the listener to "remember when...." (and explain fads of the day). They also play bits of old OLD TV themes!
EDIT: My opinion only, but I feel that The Villages' WVLG has really lost their way musically. Sad to see/hear. (But I've already ranted about them here before.)

I would agree, you'd think they'd stick to their roots...it's AM for goodness sake, it's not going to be an "awesome 80s hit music" station ever

East Coast - I can't think of any stations terrestrial-wise running the format - classic hits (60's, 70's, 80's) rules in this part of the country....and correct me if I'm wrong..... 
Oldies 1480 WDJO in CIncinnati....www.oldies1480.net

Same on the West Coast Andrea, and even the classic hits stations are only playing late 60s to the 90s, in my market Fresno we lost our last Classic hits station Oldies 97.5 to an Hot AC format playing the mix of Katy Perry and Maroon 5, playing the same as 4 other Fresno stations, hard the find a station playing anything before 1965.
BTW Andrea you should check in at the FWG, it's been awhile.

Van Morrison to Katy Perry? That's what I would analyze that switchover - in 2005, at least in NYC, the switchover was more like Dion to the Beastie Boys.....

In Fresno, we do have KMGV mega Oldies 97.5 playing R&B from the 50s to the 80s, such as Chicago, Tierra, EW&F, Tower Of Power, The Platters, War, Prince, Ton Loc, and etc. and KOKO 94.3 Killer Oldie that is owned by Art Laboe, that is a combination of R&B Oldies and Latin Hip-Hop.

Yes, great song!!!
Today I just listened to a classic AT40 Casey Kasem from Jan 31 1981 and "Together" was at #18.
That song was #1 in Fresno on top 40 KYNO 95.5 and KMGX Magic104 back then, and I believe it reached #1 in San Francisco as well.
