Obviously, AT40 is more CHR oriented than either AT20. Ofcourse, since AT40 is solely based on airplay now, it's not as CHR oriented as it used to be. The unfortunate thing I'm finding in listening to AT40 these days, is that there is no time for anything else, but three LLDs each show. There are still Casey's stories about current acts in the countdown although it seems to me that those have been severely cutback now. To me, the Hot A/C is a more interesting program because the format gives Casey time to present more interesting stories about current hits as well as those from the 80s and 90s.
