Well, I'm in Portland also and I've heard quite a few.  Besides the
regulars, DFtR, BfY, Godzilla, the local station occasionally plays Shooting
Shark and a whole side from ETL  They have also played special requests,
such as Black Blade, and The Vigil.  When I lived in LA I remember hearing
Lips in the Hills quite a bit as well as This Ain't the Summer of Love, Take
Me Away, Vet., and Sinful Love (once).
