The standard daypart is 7 to Midnight.

Using the 6th largest city, Houston, as an example, between 7 PM

not, it is 0.6%. In 18-34 year olds, the share is 0.4% of all
persons in that age group, whether listening or not.

Thank you. That's what I wanted. For comparison, television pulls
over 60% of all persons during 7 to midnight.

- 0.6% listening to AM during primetime
- over 30% watching broadcast TV (fox, cw, ...)
- over 60% watching all tv (including cable)

Is it any wonder the AM stations feel the need to improve the quality
of the sound (digital upgrade), in hopes of bringing in more listeners.
