As we
reported yesterday, the Radio Research Consortium (RRC) has recently signed a
new agreement to provide Nielsen Audio data from noncommercial through 2020. The
new deal requires paperwork from each subscribing station. So, the January PPM data for
some noncom stations is not available until the paperwork is completed. January PPM data for these stations is listed
as “Pending” in the charts below.
Also
today, I compiled a list of commercial stations that program Triple A and
Modern Rock. These stations tend to
share listening with public radio stations in their markets. Scroll down to see the list.
FEATURED MARKET:
DENVER-BOULDER
Noncommercial
radio is happening on the Front Range. All three Colorado Public Radio Stations
– KCFR, KVOD and OpenAir KVOQ –
gained weekly listeners since Fall 2015.
Meanwhile
KUNC, Greeley [link], is preparing to sign-on 105.5, a 24/7 Triple A station
very soon. On February 29, KUNC is
scheduled to begin 24/7 NPR News. KUNC’s new schedule is on the right.
Here is
the latest info for the new station that was posted on the KUNC website:
From Neil Best, President & CEO
We are [close to] launching our two new
services - news, information and storytelling at 91.5fm and music discovery at
105.5fm. I am pleased to share with you that while the timeline feels tight, at
least to us, plans are coming together and we will be ready on Feb. 29.
I want to introduce you to the newest
members of the team: Margot Chobanian and Ron Bostwick will join Benji and
Keefer, hosting music discovery on 105.5fm.
The first voice you will hear at 6 a.m.
Monday morning, Feb. 29 on 105.5fm will be Ron’s. While new to KUNC, many of
you will recognize him. For many years Ron has been the host of the pre-taping
segments at eTown. He also conducts the on-stage interviews
with film stars at the Boulder International Film Festival. On the radio side
Ron has been on-air at KFMU in Steamboat Springs and KBCO in Boulder. Ron will
be hosting music on 105.5fm from 6-10 a.m. weekdays.
Margot Chobanian comes to middays on
KUNC. A native of Michigan, Margot started in radio in her hometown of Grand
Rapids, Michigan, with stops in Detroit, Fayetteville, Arkansas and Atlanta.
From oldies to alternative to Triple A, Margot brings a wide range of
experiences to us. She says she is really looking forward to being able to talk
about music on-air with you - the audience. Away from the microphone Margot is
involved with animal rescue, as witnessed by the four dogs she and her husband
have brought with them from Atlanta.
All of us are really looking forward to
introducing our two new services on Leap Day. Between now and Feb. 29 we will
be sharing more details. Stay with us during this exciting time!
