On a normal basis, just one: the local CHR WYOY (Y101). However, when I'm in the car, I can get WNSL Laurel-Hattiesburg. Depending on which way the wind blows, I can get it better on some days than others.

Normallg just one, WIHT. Two if you count WWMX as a CHR.
On some nights, I can get WRVQ, and occasionally WMDM.
On rare nights, I can get WXMM as well.

Atlanta's pretty far from any other cities...so just WSTR and WWWQ - can get WFBC/Greenville SC if I have to go North of town any
I think lots of people in New England can pick up 4-5 CHRs (all from different cities), just cause cities are so close together up there

The Dallas-Fort Worth Metroplex pretty much can only receive the mega-signal that is KHKS. I have picked it up 100 miles away from the city in any direction on the interstates. The extreme east of the city towards Mesquite and Rockwall, KAFX/Tyler TX can be picked up at certain times of the day. From Downtown Dallas and Fort Worth to extreme southern counties of the metroplex, KWTX/Waco can also be picked up with minor static. Extreme northwest parts of the metroplex can reach the Wichita Falls, TX CHR as well.

Here in Albany, NY we have 2 CHR/Pop - FLY-92 and 102.3-KissFM. However, I can also get 97.1 from Rutland, VT. Not the best signal, but usually tolerable enough to listen to.

1) Z100
2) 92.3 Now FM which sounds like it still uses 12" records and MOST people I know hate it (I think it's okay)

In Toronto you can get 4 local CHR's and one USA CHR with strong signals.
1) Z103.5 - A dance oriented CHR.
2) CHUM-FM 104.5 - Was a Hot AC but has clearly moved to Mainstream CHR.
3) Virgin 99.9 - Was Hot AC but has clearly moved to Mainstream CHR.
4) KISS 92.5 - Was the #1 CHR/Pop station in Toronto when it flipped to the JACK format in 2003 and just flipped back to CHR/Pop.
5) WKSE KISS 98.5 Buffalo - The CHR/Pop in Buffalo. There is another CHR/Pop station in the Buffalo market but its signal does not reach Toronto.

Hot 99.5 DC; 98.3 Kiss fm-Winchester; 97.7 The Rocket-Lexington Park MD; driving around to the west a lil I can pick up Q101-Harrisonburg (comes in crystal clear in Centreville); over @my sis in-laws place (10 mins away, Clifton area) I can hear 99.3 Vibe FM-Fredricksburg (RHythmic CHR); an only during DX's can I hear Q94 Richmond.
You might include Mix106.5 B-more, assuming you count it as a CHR, but honestly, I can't pick them up very well at all, unless I go into the city which is rare, driving around in VA, you can't really pick it up. or at least I can't.
Do pirates count?? :) there is a small weekend pirate thats a CHR hybrid. Selective CHR (no rap) w/ a lot of recurrents.

KTXY is the only CHR station we get. KOQL is our rhythmic station, but it's very pop leaning.

Just two for me: WPRO-FM (Providence) and WXKS-FM (Boston). I know you can get a fair amount in northern New Hampshire/southern Maine from past road trips up there.

^Yeah I actually think the "record" might be the Eastern part of Connecticut, where you can pick up Kiss 108/Boston, WPRO/Providence, WFHN/New Bedford, Kiss 95.7 Hartford, Q105.5 New London, KC101 New Haven, and I98.3 in rural area north of Hartford
That's seven CHRs in one location lol

WKSC Kiss 103.5 FM and WBBM B-96 96.3 FM are both CHR/Rhythm leaning in Chicago where I live, so do both of these count?

Technically they still consider themselves a Hot AC, but they're really just a dayparted CHR like WAEB/Allentown. Their playlist includes Pitbull, Sean Kingston, Keri Hilson/Kanye West, both of the BEP songs, "Lovegame", 3OH!3, Kid Cudi, and Kristinia Debarge. |

3 - z100, 92.3 Now (if you wanna even call that station a CHR), and 106.3 Hit 106, which is a new CHR that serves Central and parts of South Jersey.

Atlanta's pretty far from any other cities...so just WSTR and WWWQ. I wish the latter would lean a little more rhythmic during the days. They play the current urban and rhythmic songs at night. Keri Hilson's "Knock You Down" and Jeremih's "Birthday Sex" for example. |

KTXY is the only CHR station we get. KOQL is our rhythmic station, but it's very pop leaning. You can't get KSLZ? That station is 100,000 watts at about 1,500 feet. |

It depends on what part of the market that you're listening in, but you can pick up seven different CHRs in various parts of my market.

Q100 used to be a much better radio station before Susquehanna got out of the radio business and sold it to Cumulus.

Q-100 sounded great when it debuted. It was more rhythmic leaning then. It was great hearing artists of different genres on one station.

CHR-Pop is popular in my market, Nassau-Suffolk. WHTZ from New York City, WBLI from Patchogue in Suffolk County, WXRK from New York City, and WBEA from Southold in Suffolk County have a combined rating of 12.5. I can get the first three of those stations.

Since I live in the middle of the big markets, I am able to get 3 CHR's. KHOP in Modesto, KDND in Sacramento, and KMVQ in San Francisco. KMVQ is Rhythmic leaning...

Coincidentally, KRBE and Q100 were sister stations under Susquehanna.
I would argue that Q100 could've been among the premier CHR stations in the country had Cumulus not bought out Susquehanna. Maybe not quite on the level of Z100 or KIIS, but could've been over time.
