NEW AT40 PRCMO SERVICE STARTS IBIS WEEK

Beginning with this week's show, #844-10, we are inaugurating the new .AMERICAN 1DP 40 weekly promos service on a trial basis that will continue at least through Show #844-13 (which happens to be the eight-hour year end special).

The promos are designed to heighten listener interest in AMERICAN 1DP 40 by covering important chart-related events. They are scheduled to run between weekly AT40 shows, mainly on Wednesdays, Thursdays, Fridays and Saturdays. They will help listeners know what to listen for by back-selling last week's show in the context of what might happen on this week 's show.

Here are the basics:

Promos will run 20-30 seconds each.

(We will not provide promos when there

Promos will be supplied in the clear with no background tracks or any other production. That's up to you, if you wish. AT40 themes are provided to subscribing stations once every three months as additional cuts on the first show of every calendar quarter (show mnnbers ending in "-111

). Promos can also be run over long song intros.

Promos will be supplied as extra cuts .on the weekly show discs. To find them, look up their location on the cue sheets.

Actual promo copy will also be provided to help in local production, scheduling, etc.

Promos should be tagged with local show time and day, either live or in pre-production. Promos become out-dated after the show to which they are keyed. suggest you label your production materials (carts or whatever) ''DO Nar usE AFTER _____ 11

We

Do not play the promos on the air directly off the AT40 show discs; rather, dub them off onto carts or reel to reel when the show package -arrives each week.

For the next few weeks there will be at least one cut selling the eight-hour Year End Special, scheduled for broadcast New Year's weekend. (Program #844-13).

We hope to be able to continue this service after the first of the year . And we would like to hear your reaction. Let us know what you think. Call me at (800) 423-2502 or (818) 980-9490.
