I got Pat's ok to mention this here. A couple months ago, I started an instrumental radio station on the internet. It's called "Hits on Guitar" - it's instrumental versions of pop & AC hits, played on guitar (and occasionally, other instruments like harp or flute). It's mostly songs from the '60s through '80s, but there are some older ones and quite a lot of newer ones ('90s & '00s and even the current #1 song in the USA - "Call Me Maybe"). I thought some of you guys might like to hear my station - because it contains mostly top 40 US hits (played instrumentally, that is), and if anyone would know some of the lower charting hits I've included, it's you guys! :) So here's the link, for those who might be interested in checking it out:
http://loudcaster.com/channels/1470-hits-on-guitar
Interestingly, I've had listeners from over 50 different countries so far (although I would imagine many of those folks are not familiar with a lot of the songs on the station, like you guys would be.)

I just started my second internet radio station and thought some of you might enjoy it. It's called "Soft Hits and Lost Hits" and contains mostly AC-charting hits (including many you don't hear on AC radio - as well as a small percentage of album cuts and non-charting singles.) But probably 90% of the playlist is AC-charting songs. Here are the links:
http://listen.radionomy.com/soft-hits-and-lost-hits.m3u (listen)
http://www.radionomy.com/en/radio/soft-hits-and-lost-hits (home page)
If the "listen" link doesn't work, you should be able to access the station from the other home page.
The station contains a lot of lower charting TOP 40 POP hits, because they also charted AC, so there are probably a lot of songs that you folks would like. And though most of the public wouldn't even notice, in most cases I've chosen the single versions (you guys are probably the only ones who would appreciate this :)
I also brought back my 1st station, "Hits on Guitar", today. (Loudcaster went out of business, but I found a new home for it through the website Radionomy):
http://listen.radionomy.com/hits-on-guitar.m3u (listen)
http://www.radionomy.com/en/radio/hits-on-guitar (homepage)
Both stations should be available on TuneIn within a couple days (and can be heard on portable devices.)
