@sunshine45What's with everything at 3AM or am I misunderstanding your list?  Is that the starting time?

[sunshine45]

the starting times and ending times of the channels during the holiday season. i guess they end them/start them at 3am et so that pacific time zone it will end or start at midnight.

I don't get a lot of these channels now because I don't have the premium package.  I believe I have the family package.  I wonder if some of these will start to come in for the holiday music.  

Some of these I already have set on my radio now because they are regular channels. But my radio doesn't go up into the 700s.

hopefully some of these will be available for you @Lipstickdiva. they definitely changed a lot of the channel assignments they used last year for the holiday channels.

@sunshine45, thanks for posting this, when I got the notice on FB, we were having to ask "what channel", LOL!

I've used the "Holly" channel for several years now, and love it!
