HOW MANY people listen to Distant (100 mile) AM at night?
How many AM DX'ers are there?
How many nighttime AM listeners are there? Does anyone know the official numbers? Has the FCC tracked it? I'm looking for a reliable source. |

All 50 kW stations would cut their power by 3 dB to save money on electric bills and all would run syndicated talk radio because those ASCAP fees cut into the bottom line and it's much cheaper to pay a hatemonger.- Hide quoted text - - Show quoted text - Operating in the public interest is fine, but targeting an audience hundreds of miles away that an advertiser would have little hope of selling his product to makes no business sense at all.

But my guess is that radio stations will continue to target and broadcast to local audiences. They will also continue to not targer dxers and other out-of-area audiences. |

Only 2 or 3 "superstations" like WGN or WTBS or WOR would be allowed to do national-wide AM. Thus cleaning-up the air. Alternatively: I would forbid Digital broadcast at night, and propose to the FCC board that AM analog be terminated in 2015. (Same as the UK and Germany are planning to do.) At that time AM-HD would take over during night broadcasts. |

Most nighttime radio has long been such spots (as has network radio always been). That is just not how radio is sold. Local radio is sold for the local metro, and you get no greater rate because you have more extensive coverage. The accounts you mention don't buy night radio, anyway. Most of them do not buy the ages that AM radio attracts. One of them does not buy radio at all. Networks are a device to collect in one buy stations in many markets, and the audience estimates are compiled from the ratings of the individual stations. Networks are used in radio to provide content a station wants for "free" to the station; the station gives part of the time, which the network resells in a package, usually at a rate lower than the sum of the rates of each station. That way the network gets revenue, and the station does not have hard cash costs... this is similar to the model for network TV, too. Only one network show I know of, Rush, requires in some markets an amount of cash as well as inventory (but there may be a few others). The syndication model, similar to network, was invented by the folks who created American Top 40... principally Tom Rounds... around 1970. The show was generally free to the station, or had a small payment for hard costs, and the station ran the program's spots, which provided Watermark with its profits. One show, the famous or infamous one created by Art Bell, required most of the barter spots to be run in the daytime, except for a few that had an appeal to overnight listeners specifically, such as the "consumer DX radios" they often peddle. |

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? |

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. Thank you. |
