Areas still without Top 40 Stations

Fresno
Northern Maine
Eastern end of Long Island
Atlantic City (WAYV is too Hot A/C)
Reading, PA
York, PA
Trenton-Central NJ/Warren County (WPST-FM is now Hot A/C)
Sussex County, NJ
Worchester, MA
Springfield, MA
 
In terms of mainstream CHR, two markets in Indiana come to mind...

Muncie/Marion, IN (though Indy's i94 can be heard in some of the market)
Fort Wayne, IN...no mainstream CHR, but 2 rhythmic CHRs
 
Oxnard-Ventura, CA... Live 105.5 is more hot AC than top 40.

Eastern LI does have Beach 101.7. Also KC 101, and Kiss 95.7 do catch portions of eastern LI. The only area those three do not is the immediate areas around Montauk by Q105.5 from Gronton comes in there.

Hit 106 covers Atlantic City.

Reading has nothing directly in the market, but the Philly stations as well as other CHR's are in Reading.

In York you have FM 97 in Lancaster, and Kiss in Harrisburg

Trenton area, PST is now Hot A/C, but you do have the Philly CHR's or the NYC CHR's depending on the direction (and in some areas both)

In Sussex, you have nothing directly in the county, but other CHR's to cover the area. In eastern Sussex you generally have the city stations. WSPK, K104.7 from Poughkeepsie covers most of northern Sussex, you also have WAEB in Allentown which covers portions of Sussex and WKRZ covers most of Sussex.

Worchester is covered by Kiss in Boston, Springfield by Kiss in Hartford.
 
I think FM 97 covers Reading really well. Once I hit Reading B104 fades out. Sussex, I barely get KRZ, or B104, or K104 there at all their signals are horrible there.

Can you explain these Fort Wayne stations and what makes them rhythmic CHR and not mainstream CHR? I guess I'm not quite sure what the difference is between the two. Is mainstream CHR just your run-of-the-mill Top 40 station?
