3AW Retains Top Spot in Melbourne Radio Ratings

May 9th, 2006 at 07:23pm

The results for the final ratings survey before the 3AW/Magic frequency swap are in, with 3AW and Magic both recording gains. This is Melbourne Ratings #3, 2006, for March 26 to April 29 inclusive.

The largest gains went to 3AW (+2.2), Fox FM (+1.0) and Magic (+0.4). The largest losses went to ABC Local Radio (-1.8), Gold 104.3 (-1.6) and Mix 101.1 (-0.5).

I’ll bring you the next Melbourne Radio Ratings as well, which will be the first after the frequency swap. The results should be interesting. That survey will be for May 7 to June 10 inclusive, and is due for release on June 20.

    I blame ABC Local Radio’s drop in ratings on Samuel’s swipe at ABC Local Radio having the audacity to advertise on commercial TV.

    I also blame Red Simons and Richard Stubbs for declining audiences.

    Samuel, do you really think we need more advertising? I’m not sure about you, but everywhere I look, there are ads bombarding my senses.

    Oh and thanks for putting up these ratings. I agree it will be very interesing to see the next set of ratings. I have been losing sleep over it.

    The good news is that the last survey period finished before I made that comment…the current survey period started with it though.
