Post your Christmas music radio flips here

F

Well, now that it's November 1, we'll likely start hearing the holiday cheer on the airwaves 24/7.

First Xmas music flips I've heard of include:

Minneapolis/St. Paul:
WLTE (Soft AC)
KQQL (classic hits/oldies)

Milwaukee:
WRIT (adult hits/classic hits/oldies)
WMYX (Hot AC)

Rochester, MN:
KLCX (classic hits)

Any other Xmas music stations out there?
 
Already 93.1 in Indianapolis has been doing Christmas for 3 weeks, and WWFT 93.9 has promised to do the same in the next couple of weeks.
 
What formats got cut on XM to make room for the Christmas formats this year? Also, is it like it has been before where they cut stations that aren't related to the Christmas format that replaced it?
 
I should mention that WRIT was just goofing around, probably to stick it to WMYX. They did X-Mas music up until noon or so, then went back to their usual fare. The Mix is still pounding the holiday cheer.

Or, what stations to take off your pre-sets if you're one of the Grinches (I am) who actually believes
it should be confined to a week or two before Christmas and not 2 and a half months before! :)
Of course the Yuletide ads are already running--Santa and his elves singing "Ho ho ho! The big big
O! Overstock dot com!" to the tune of Jingle Bells, well before the leaves fall from the trees...Advertisers
believe in that old song from the musical Mame: "We need a little Christmas, right this very minute...It hasn't
snowed a single flurry but Santa dear we're in a hurry..."
 
WYYS FM 106.1 Oldies 106 Streator Illinois makes the flip to Christmas music at noon today (November 16th)

93.9 has now moved to an all Christmas format.
 
2 Boston stations flipped to all-Christmas this week...unfortunately, my 2 favorite stations.

WODS, Oldies 103.3 flipped at 6am Monday morning. They've done this the last 2 or 3 years and go earlier every year.

105.7 WROR (Classic Hits or whatever they call it nowadays) flipped at 7am back on Monday morning. Never expected them to do this, they hadnt before.
 
KOST in Los Angeles went last Friday morning in the middle of the Mark & Kim show "live" from Disneyland. They did a pretty innovative bit with the voice actors who do Goofy and Donald Duck to kick it off. KOSY in Salt Lake went way back on November 1st. That's early.
