Most analyses of public radio listening examine the performance of individual stations within this large mix, the contributions of specific national programs, or aggregate numbers for the system as a whole. This report takes a different approach. Through an extensive, multi-year study of 228 stations that generate about 80% of public radio’s audience, we review patterns of listening to groups of stations categorized by the formats that they present. We find that stations that pursue different format strategies – news, classical, jazz, AAA, and the principal combinations of these – have experienced significantly different patterns of audience growth in recent years and important differences in key audience behaviors such as loyalty and time spent listening. This quantitative study complements qualitative research that the Station Resource Group, in partnership with Public Radio Program Directors, and others have pursued on the values and benefits listeners perceive in different formats and format combinations. Key findings of The Public Radio Format Study include: • In a time of relentless news cycles and a near abandonment of news by many commercial stations, public radio’s news and information stations have seen a 55% increase in their average audience from Spring 1999 to Fall 2004.

WRVL announces expansion December 01, 2009 ¦ Sarah Funderburke Liberty University news and athletic events will soon be reaching the ears of 2 million more people. WRVL “Victory FM,” a non-commercial broadcast station on Liberty’s campus, will purchase four new full-power radio stations and two translator radio stations in North Carolina from Calvary Chapel of Costa Mesa in Santa Ana, Calif. WRVL, at 88.3 in Lynchburg, Va., will begin streaming its broadcasts over the new stations in early February. WRVL airs the Flames Sports Network, local weather, music and top Christian radio programs, including “Focus on the Family” and “Answers in Genesis.” Although the new stations are located in North Carolina, they will allow Liberty’s broadcast network to reach several new areas in Virginia, including Virginia Beach, Suffolk and Newport News. “This has been the most exciting experience of my broadcast career,” said WRVL station manager Jerry Edwards. He said the expansion continues the dream of Liberty’s former chancellor, Jerry Falwell, Sr., who wanted to eventually broadcast WRVL in every city in Virginia and northern North Carolina.
