Richard Gillmann's Top Folk Airplay Lists
DJ Playlist Formats

Here is a list of DJ playlist formats. There are over 200 names. 
That doesn't mean that 200 DJs submitted playlists in the last month; 
it's the total number of DJs that have submitted a playlist since 2006. During 
a typical month, there might be 150 different DJs posting playlists, of 
which my programs understand about 120, as about 20% are "nixed." If you 
are "nixed" please see the FAQ for possible reasons.

Here are what the codes mean:

a = artist 
c = album (CD) name 
s = song 
l = record label 
L = optional record label 
9 = a number 
\n = a new line 
~ = tab
T = table format
Nix = playlist not being tallied
