• Listening figures for local radio stations are found in the Forbruker & Media survey. This survey measures radio listening at regional and local level. The survey is made quarterly by Kantar Media and the method used is CATI*. • The Forbruker & Media survey represents official listening figures for Norwegian local radios and for national channels locally. • Listening figures for local radio Q3 2017 were published by Kantar Media in October 2017 (http://www.tns- gallup.no/globalassets/medier/radio/statusrapport-radio-2017-20-10-17- futsater-og-jortveit.pdf). The NMA refers to the Kantar Media survey for listening figures for local radio. In this context the NMA will present some of Kantar Media’s main figures from Q3 in the NMA report. Figures for local radio Q4 2017 will be presented later in January 2018.
