January Ratings

http://ratings.radio-online.com/cgi-bin/rol.exe/arb011

WWJ on top (but AM is dead, right?) WNIC, without Christmas music and the jolly season tumbles all the way to #9. The Ticket is a Strong #2, which is surprising for this time of year. WYCD has not recovered and is outside of the Top Ten. NASH has had some impact, but I think this may be a sign of dissatisfaction by Country Music fans with the currently available product. That, or this audience is starting to migrate toward portable digital devices for their music. WCSX had a decent jump, as did WJR (but AM is really dead, right?) Notably, 105.1 finally drew a 2.0! AMP jumped almost a full point, maybe the TV ads are working?

All News SOARS when there's bad weather.

jry,

I agree, but the big weather story, the storm at the end of January/early February fell outside of this book, so it surprised me that WWJ still had such a solid performance. They'll likely remain on top next month.

good point, UM

Edited:

Someone had said that the survey period went to 1/28... Maybe a little of the inclement weather IS included in these numbers.
