Shift workers? What are shift workers?

Shift workers are those working in factories or businesses where there are
multiple shifts. One shift goes off as another comes on. In industrial
processes, shifts in LA at least tend to be 6-2, 2-10 and 10 to 6.

No lunch?

I used to work the 10-6. You only get 7.5 hours on those days.

Using the 6th largest city, Houston, as an example, between 7 PM and
midnight...as a percentage of all persons, whether using radio or 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 70% of all persons during 7 to
midnight. Any idea how many of that 0.6% of primetime AM listeners
are listening via skywave (non-local)?

Don't drive like a snail. ;-) If the speed say 70 then that's what
you need to be doing (or even higher). It's an interstate highway,
not a local country road. It's meant for high-speed travel.

Nothing annoys me more than when I'm driving down I-95 and some yoyo
is doing 50. C'mon. Drive faster.

And so AM clearchannels really DON'T care about distant markets. They
don't even bother to look (too expensive).

And no returns.

A good example: 40% or more of the Riverside San Bernardino audience is
listening at any given time to LA stations. 3 of the top 5 stations there
are usually LA stations. But LA stations do not sell advertising there,
because the market is about 30th in the US, and spots go for $100 or less.
In LA, the top radio market for revenue, spots can be sold for way over
$1000 each. Why sell a $100 buck ad when you can sell for over a grand each?

That doesn't mean they are irrelevant.

There is data for every hour of the day, but licensed only for use by
Arbitron subscribers. It takes a couple of clicks to get a
Midnight to 6 AM ranker or table.

If you have that information, please share. How many AM
listeners are there during the 8 to midnight hours?

Where? To what station? In what market? AQH listeners,
cume listeners, MSA listeners, DMA listeners?

I don't really care. Just pick some random market, 8 pm to midnight,
and AQH Share. I just want a rough estimate of how many spend their
evenings listening to AM.

d'Eduardo, {Houstan Ain't Texas - It Is That Simple}

The Fallacy of all your Corporate Media Numbers is that you
Report about Numbers within the Metro-Area : While IMHO
most of the Late Night Radio Listeners Live Outside the
Metro-Area well beyond the 10 mv/m Contour.

where FM had more listeners than AM.

- It's a number below the rounding error of Arbitron.
- In other words, 0.04% of all listening
- or 0.003 of all persons.

SFTV -aka- "Hybrid Digital" Man,

You appear to to suffer from Digital Thinking in an Analog Reality
{World}.

- Fixed to be more consistent (changing only variable at a time).

Be Advised - You Are Not Authorized To Change "My Numbers"

Neo-Quantum Ideas {Concepts} Require Multi-Dimensional Changes
{Variables}

- It still makes no logical sense though.

Clearly My Logic and My Sense are not your logic and your sense :
Hence it is all 'simply' Newsgroup NONSENSE ! -jftfoi-

One DXer is still the same value, regardless of how far away he is.

Ah Haw - Clearly You Do Not Understand Concept of DX
and the Craft of DXing : Since "DX" Means 'Distance' ! -nism-

(Which is not that much, since he's not inside the local market.)

To The DXer 'being' Outside The Local Market "Is" Everything !
- - - If They Were Inside The 10mv/m Contour :
They Would Not Be a DXer.
