40's On 4 Goes Up!

[IdRatherBeSkiing]

Moving it in with the genre makes sense the more I think about it.
I picture people flipping between all of the standards stations, but not flipping from 90's, 80's, 70's, 60's, and then down to the 40's. The 50's is the station I wonder about now. I can picture people going from 40's to 50's, or 50's to 60's, but not past all three.

50s and onward is the rock era. I can see then keeping the 50s decade channel for that reason.

I heard a promo for Pitbulls new channel last night on MadDog 86 saying they are launching on Channel 4. The week of May 11th

Thanks for the update. I'm sending an old Samsung Nexus to my grandparents after they heard 40's on 4 on my radio recently. It is weird to have the pop channels right next to the 40's channel.

Let Pitbull have channel 4. I hope it makes a lot of money for the company. Channel 73 is between the classical channels as well as the other Jazz/Standards channels so this does look like a really good spot for 40's Junction.

40's on Channel 73 will officially be called 40's Junction starting August 13th.

We should be home in time to give this a try.
Movie and dinner with friends, then we're coming back to our place for beverages, games, and the countdown. We're old, so casual sounds good.
