Is there a "format hole" in ATL?

[Artiemad1]

You know operators are seeking translators and perhaps eying possible move ins but what format would be programmed if another stick/signal made itself available.
Is there something that's kickin butt elsewhere that's not available here?
Thoughts?

Some random ideas:

The biggest is probably adult/variety hits.

Classic country?
Soft AC?

What are the chances of JackFm in Atlanta? I know ChuckFm but can only be heard in the northern burb's but just asking.

Jack FM and (kinda) Soft AC is all I can think of.

Triple A.

Classic country?
Soft AC?

How about soft classic country with the formatic elements of Peach? "That was Anne Murray and 'Dancing In The Moonlight'. Before that we heard Charlie Pride and 'You're So Good When You're So Bad'. And we started the set with Lorrie Morgan and 'Dear Me'. Hi I'm Billy The Kidd on your station playing soft country classics ..."

Urban Oldies (1960s-1980s). It would be nice since V-103, Kiss 104 and Majic 107.5 haven't reached for those titles from that time anymore, and the buzz with Old School 1010 has declined.

Old skool R&B/urban oldies would be nice.

Would AAA get traction with a decent alt station already in the market? It never seemed like Dave and 99X could ever coexist.

Still think that variety hits/Jack is the single biggest hole, with soft AC second and classic R&B third.

I would pick some kind of Jack-FM and Motown Oldies (60's-early 70's).

Adult Contemporary, the way Peach / Lite-FM used to be. B-98.5 while AC, leans top 40 and has dropped too many AC / soft AC tracks from the 70's and 80's. As an adjunct to this, a traditional AC station would be much more likely to fill the seasonal format hole which opened up last year, 24/7 Christmas music.
