The name "Doo Wop Shoppe" might ten to "turn off" some younger listeners, but I certainly think it is feasible to have an show concentrating on 50s and 60s music that includes a good deal of doo-wop on Sunday night on CBS-FM. Just use a more "generic" name for it. I did a show like that myself on WALL in Middletown, NY, back in the 70s. I called it "Time Machine Show", and often included a number of seldom-heard doo-wop 45s from my own collections (along with all the usual big Top 40 hits of the era).
In fact, if I remember correctly, Norm N. Nite originally called his Sunday night show the "Nite Train Show". He played quite a bit of doo-wop back then, too, even though the name of the show gave no real indication of that!
