Written by David Bray on 25 September 2018.

Say goodbye to summer but look in the rear view mirror to see the summer’s radio ratings. Let’s see which way the numbers rolled … with the release of the latest book.  The new PPM release from Numeris completes the thirteen week period covering May 28th, to Aug. 26th, 2018. Let’s look at the five PPM markets.

Toronto: Bragging rights at the top of the ratings heap go to both CHFI-FM and BOOM 97.3 with each delivering an 11.1 share for A12+.  BOOM-FM grabs the #1 spot with ladies 25-54 delivering a 12.7% share (down from 14.4%) followed closely by BOOM with a 12.6 % share. BOOM-FM holds the #1 spot for males 25-54, posting an 11.7% share (up from 11.1 % in the last 13 week book).
