Hi

Air America ratings continue to drop - they had a 2.2 share in April, a 1.7 in May, and a 1.2 in June. (from Drudge)

At this rate, they could have lower ratings than Profit Stare by October.

In addition to that, Rush has a 4.8 share vs. Air America's 1.7 share in NYC.

Do you listen to Rush?

And that's the margin in one of the most liberal cities in the
country. But the left has plenty of other outlets to hear their views
aired, so AirAmerica, in some ways, is also competing against NPR, the
major dailys, and non-Fox News television.

signal at 770 kHz.

WLIB's signal gets pretty crappy pretty quickly as you move toward the
burbs. It's even difficult to pick up in much of Manhattan. WABC stays
quite powerful all over town.

Compare http://www.radio-locator.com/cgi-bin/pat?
call=WABC&service=AM&status=L&hours=D side by side with
http://www.radio-locator.com/cgi-bin/pat?
call=WLIB&service=AM&status=L&hours=D to see the relative difference
between the number 1 and number 2 AM talk stations -- note the difference
in scale when comparing the two.

Then look at http://www.radio-locator.com/cgi-bin/pat?
call=WOR&service=AM&status=C&hours=D to see what the number 3 AM talk
station has for a signal pattern. (Radio-locator.com is not a definitive
reference as to where you might or might not be able to pick up a signal;
but I've found that for making relative comparisons among stations'
signals, it's fairly useful.)

No, transmitter power doesn't make all the difference, but it certainly
matters; it's just one more obstacle that WLIB's three-month-old Air
America programming is overcoming.

WLIB is fulltime.

Yes, I was unclear in my expression; I meant to state their daytime power,
which covers the ratings time periods under discussion.

I see that I mistakenly gave the nighttime power (30 kW) for the daytime
power (really 10 kW, according to radio-locator.com).

Which makes their daytime ratings compared with the 50 kW WABC and WOR even
more impressive.
