I read where a new CHR in Little Rock is taking a Jack-like approach by playing music from the 80s and 90s, along with the current stuff. For instance, you might hear a Bon Jovi song next to EMF next to Pitbull. While I don't want to knock something that I hadn't experienced, I'm not sure this will work. It would, however, make for some very interesting radio. I'll see if I can find a playlist later on to post.

Wouldn't this technically be just another "Jack" station" as opposed to a CHR? Or are you saying it's a CHR whose recurrent/gold pool has 80s and 90s hits mixed in?

It probably could be another Jack station, but I would go more towards the latter. Perhaps, you could even call it a gold-based CHR station. Here's a sample from the last few hours from KHTE:
Puddle Of Mudd - Blurry Smash Mouth - All Star Sister Hazel - All For You Jason Mraz - The Remedy (I Won't Worry) Black Eyed Peas - Let's Get It Started Bon Jovi - It's My Life Sheryl Crow - If It Makes You Happy Kylie Minogue - Can't Get You Out Of My Head The All-American Rejects - Dirty Little Secret The Police - Every Breath You Take Dirty Vegas - Days Go By Goo Goo Dolls - Give A Little Bit Avril Lavigne - I'm With You Fall Out Boy - Dance, Dance Destiny's Child - Jumpin, Jumpin The Cure - Friday I'm In Love Jaheim - Anything The Calling - Wherever You Will Go Prince & The Revolution - When Doves Cry Chad Kroeger & Josey Scott - Hero Chamillionaire - Ridin (w/ Krayzie Bone) The Pussycat Dolls - Don't Cha Everlast - What It's Like Matchbox Twenty - Bright Lights Maroon 5 - Sunday Morning No Doubt - Don't Speak Lenny Kravitz - American Woman Christina Aguilera - Dirrty (w/ Redman) 3 Doors Down - Let Me Go Hinder - Better Than Me Eve 6 - Inside Out Aerosmith - I Don't Want To Miss A Thing Mary J. Blige - Family Affair Alanis Morissette - Head Over Feet Fuel - Hemorrhage (In My Hands) Mark Morrison - Return Of The Mack Nickelback - Far Away Crossfade - Cold Joan Jett & The Blackhearts - I Love Rock And Roll Train - Meet Virginia Beyonce - Crazy In Love John Cougar - Jack & Diane The Fugees - Killing Me Softly U2 - Beautiful Day Blaque - Bring It All To Me (w/ NSYNC) Rick Springfield - Jessie's Girl Trapt - Headstrong Ne-Yo - So Sick Live - Lightning Crashes Modern English - I Melt With You Vanessa Carlton - A Thousand Miles Lifehouse - Hanging By A Moment Aerosmith - Cryin'

This is not a CHR station, there's nothing current in that playlist. The songs from current artists in there, (Black-eyed peas, All american Rejects) are all old. Instead of playing "Gives you Hell" they're playing Dirty little secret, instead of "I gotta feeling" they're playing "Let's get it started". That's usually a sign of a Hot AC station, which is what this looks like to me.
