WDRC FM big hits

[kms575]

Is there an opportunity for another station to flip to classic hits here?

Doubt it, since WDRC-FM and WHCN-FM sound nearly identical now.

Doubt it, since WDRC-FM and WHCN-FM sound nearly identical now.

I'm thinking DRC-FM's playlist is 200-300 songs deeper than HCN's, just to accommodate all the soul/Motown/disco/softer pop that HCN won't touch. Here are the last dozen songs on HCN:

Smile -- Uncle Kracker
Patience -- Guns N' Roses
Cover Me -- Bruce Springsteen
Wheel in the Sky -- Journey
Take Me Home Tonight -- Eddie Money
Photograph -- Nickelback
Dude (Looks Like a Lady) -- Aerosmith
Margaritaville -- Jimmy Buffett
Long Time -- Boston
High on You -- Survivor
The Boys Are Back in Town -- Thin Lizzy
Freeze Frame -- J. Geils Band

Now, the last 12 on DRC:

September -- Earth Wind & Fire
Like a Prayer -- Madonna
Ain't No Woman Like the One I've Got -- Four Tops
More, More, More -- Andrea True Connection
In Your Eyes -- Peter Gabriel
Hurts So Good -- John Mellencamp
Nights on Broadway -- Bee Gees
Walking on Sunshine -- Katrina & the Waves
Big Shot -- Billy Joel
Losing My Religion -- REM
Just Like Starting Over -- John Lennon

I see four, maybe five, crossovers to DRC on the HCN list (Springsteen, Money, Buffett, Geils, maybe Thin Lizzy), and a similar number of crossovers to HCN on the DRC list (Gabriel, Mellencamp, REM, Katrina & the Waves, maybe Joel). Still enough of a difference to set the stations apart.

WHCN's format is Variety Hits.

I have tuned in. I'm not a fan of 90's music .

In the 1990's music started to really stink but there was some standouts that I do like.



BTW The Big D signal was booming in with a little static at Jones Beach on Long Island this past Saturday.
