    There are three country charts, all them syndicated.

    American Country Countdown, which was presented by the legendary Bob Kingsley. Now it is presented by Kix Brooks. From Radio Express.

    http://www.acctop40.com/

    Country Top 40, which is presented now by Bob Kingsley :

    http://www.ct40.com/ From Radio Express

    This one is on Canadian Forces Network Radio Europe , CFN/RFC, on Astra 1H (19.2º East) : 12604 H, 22000, 5/6, Sunday 19.00 to 23.00 UK Time.

    And finally there is another one presented by a female / male couple of presenters.

    Those are actual charts, besides there are some syndicated retro shows concerning country music. Like Retro Country Music : http://www.radioexpress.com/public/content.php?loc=weekly_sr_retro_country.php

    You forgot Country Countdown USA,hosted by Lon Helton. They have an artist with a song in the current chart as a guest each week.

    Juan Carlos, if you like American music of the 80's there's a programme on mar.me.uk every Sunday afternoon at 13h00 UK / 14h00 CET that plays 90 mins of American 80's chart hits, it's called The Kiss & WABC Years. Don't expect wall to wall Whitney and Madonna though, it seems aimed at the hardcore American music fan, often playing songs that weren't massive hits.

    On the site there are old programmes you can listen to too.

    Canadian Forces Network Radio Europe , CFN/RFC, on Astra 1H (19.2º East) : 12604 H, 22000, 5/6, gives Casey Kasem´s this way :

    American Top 40 The 70´s : Saturdays 06.00 - 09.00 and Sundays 00.00 - 03.00 UK Time.

    American Top 40 The 80´s : Saturdays 18.00 - 22.00 and Sundays 15.00-19.00 UK Time.

    http://www.europe.forces.gc.ca/tn-pb/lm-mg/cfn-rfc/cfn-rfc-eng.asp

    click on logo to listen to online.

    I get an "error 404" message when i click that link, has it changed? Can you supply me a link directly to the station, JC? I'm keen to hear Casey's 80's countdowns.

    OK, I am going to put here the schedule, concerning AT40 and all in UK summer time.

    American Top 40 The 70´s , saturdays 06.00 to 09.00 hours.

    American Top 40 The 80´s, saturdays 18.00 to 22.00 hours.

    American Top 40 The 80´s (reprise), sundays 13.00 to 17.00 hours.

    Dued to the new syndicated show, Canadian Top 20 Countdown, they only broadcast American Top 40 the 70´s once in the weekend.

    If you like to follow the show ( American Top 40 The 70s), or if you feel the show is so earlier in the morning, there is another opportunity to listen to the same show on Sunday 13.00 to 16.00 hours on http://www.theeagle.tv/ ( no geolimited).

    American Top 40 the 80s is also on The Eagle, monday mornings 04.00 to 08.00 hours.

    Anyway, this one looks like works:

    Dued to Canadian Forces Radio Network has not the rights of broadcasting FIFA World Cup news of CBC and Radio Canada, they broadcast instead an American Top 40 The 80´s show, from Monday To Friday , beguining today and till July 11th, from 6 pm to 10 pm and then replaying it from 12am to 04am. ( BST ).

    This is a filler and an extra. The regular AT40 shows in the weekend remain the same.

    http://www.europe.forces.gc.ca/tn-pb/lm-mg/cfn-rfc/cfn.asx

    They did the same when the Winter Olimpic Games.

    It's the chart dated week ending 2 February 1985 that's currently playing. So is there an 80s Top 40 show every night until July 11?

    i stayed up til midnight to record it but my hard drive failed to record... gutted!

    There are charts every weeknight at 8pm and midnight, they're on different times at the weekend.

    They started playing AT40 The 80`s shows from last monday and they started with some 80´s shows from January, different years

    Last night show was from february 2nd 1985. That means they are going to go on with the calendar, monday to friday till the weekend of july 11th, in fact till friday july 9th and the station will resume regular programmes on july 12th, when the world cup ends.

    These shows are not the regulars that they play on the weekends. In fact, the shows played on weekends ( AT40 The 70´s and AT40 The 80´s) are in time ( I mean they fix with the current dates and they are syndicated. The same editions are played the same weekends on radio stations all over the world) and they are introduced by Casey Kasem´s son ( the voice of the man who intros is so similar to Casey´s voice).

    These filler shows are introduced by another guy and, IMO, are fillers or shows the canadian radio station has for moments like these.

    On Christmas Day and on New Year´s Day they play both shows of AT40 The 70´s and AT40 The 80´s as fillers as well.

    And , of course, they play the end of the year charts in the last weeks of the year. Normally part 2 of Hot 100 singles of the years on both decade shows.

    For the World Cup fillers, monday to friday, these are the times:

    UK BST times are 6 to 10 pm and 00 to 04 am.

    CET times are 7 to 11 pm and 01 to 05 am.

    The regular weekend shows are here :

    This programme schedule doesn't mention there is an American Top 40 The 70´s show on Saturdays , 15.00 to 18.00 UK time ( or 16.00 to 19.00 CET).

    The same show is aired earlier on Saturday 06.00 to 09.00 UK time ( or 07.00 to 10.00 CET) as programme schedule shows.

    I am sorry, it´s also a filler for the World Cup.

    The show was repeated this morning from 04.00 to 07.00 am UK Time.

    That means, there are American Top 40 The 70´s show fillers on Saturdays 15.00 to 18.00 and Sundays 04.00 - 07.00 UK time till July 12th.

    On the other hand, I found some differences betwen this feed http://www.europe.forces.gc.ca/tn-pb/lm-mg/cfn-rfc/cfn.asx and the satellite radio feed on Astra 1.

    While this afternoon the satellite feed was giving Canada Top 20 Countdown the stream was giving a, apparently, local programme in german.

    This weekend and the next one, Rick Dees Weekly Top 40 is going to do a two part show about:
    The Biggest Hits From 2000 To Now!
    Rick's very special edition of the Countdown has him playing nothing but the biggest #1 hits from 2000 until right now! This week is Part 2 of this amazing 2-part Countdown event!

    The same in both Radio Hit and Hot Adult editions ( it sounds like a filler for Rick´s holidays).

    It's a shame Casey couldn't have held out for one more year.

    I hope this Saturday the syndicated show AT 40 The 70´s brings the very first show on July 4th 1970 or even the special they did back on July 4th 1975 when the show was 5 years old.

    Or even the extra show ( the filler for the World Cup).
